Use original IC! displayed on QCX 20m #chat

j.capel@...
A new chat has been created: I attempted to upgrade the firmware on my QCX 20m from 1.00e to 1.00f. I am using the instructions from "How to update the firmware on the QCX using an arduino uno and AVRDUDESS". Something went wrong and now I get the display "Use original IC!". I tried updating the firmware again this evening with the following output from Avrdudess: T1.00f.hex: 0 / 32,768 Bytes (0.00%)

avrdude.exe done. Thank you.
It is my understanding that I may need the eeprom (eep) file in addition to the hex file to remedy this problem. And perhaps the suggested fuse settings as well. Last evening I sent Hans a request for the eep file along with any suggestions he may have. If anyone has access to the eep file and the recommended fuse settings, I certainly would appreciate it. 73 John KF6QPC

Please let me know if the instructions need updating.Simon, I suspect John needs to tell us whether he obeyed "2) Program only the provided .hex file (see above); do not change the Fuse settings, or other memories (e.g. EEPROM)" 73 Alan G4ZFQ
