Firmware upgrade script

It is surely inconvenient to upgrade dozens of devices manually. For automation, you can use scripting (e.g. Python, bash, batch) and create a script to upgrade your devices.

tip

Run these commands in your operating system environment. Do not use the device's CLI / the term tool.

Examples using Windows batches:

  • Upgrade to the latest stable release over USB:

    resetconn       :: Reset connection options to default
    set if=usb :: Set the interface to USB
    srm UPGRADE-stable
  • Upgrade to latest testing release variant VECTOR_LYNX_generic over CAN (default can speed is 1Mbps):

    resetconn       :: Reset connection options to default
    set if=kvaser :: Set the interface to kvaser
    srm UPGRADE-testing:VECTOR_LYNX_generic
  • Upgrade to latest testing release to exact version VECTOR_OPHION_generic v4.0.1-testing Oct 17 2022 over CAN (CAN speed is set to 500kbps):

    resetconn       :: Reset connection options to default
    set if=kvaser :: Set interface to kvaser
    set opt=0,4
    srm "UPGRADE:VECTOR_OPHION_generic v4.0.1-testing Oct 17 2022"
