aconno ACNPROG
Firmware Upgrade:
1. Place a common magnet onto the top side of the
ACNPROG USB dongle
2. Plug the ACNPROG with the magnet on it into an USB
Port of an PC/Mac
3. A device called “CRP DISABLD” should appear
4. Remove the magnet and open the new device “CRP
DISABLED” with a file manager
5. Delete the file “firmware.bin”
6. Copy the new aconno firmware onto the device. It
should be named like “ACNPROG_FW_VXXX.bin”
were “XXX” stands for the firmware version
7. When the copy process is finished, disconnect the
ACNPROG from the PC/Mac
8. Reconnect the ACNPROG and enjoy your upgraded
programmer :)
