Aurora 9 Firmware upgrade issue
I'm having an odd problem with upgrading the firmware in my Aurora 9 transmitter, currently at V1.06...
I downloaded the latest HPP-22 software/firmware (1.04) from the Hitec site and installed it on on my computer. The computer has never had this software installed before so there was nothing to uninstall. I hooked everything up per the system upgrade manual and on-screen instructions. I have no trouble getting a connection to the transmitter every time I run the software. What I DON'T get is the pop-up illustrated in the manual to upgrade the firmware. The program immediately goes into the upload/download screen and displays the transmitter's firmware as 1.06. Communication with the transmitter is good because I'm able to back up my model "sets" to my PC.
I searched the forum and found several mentions of people not seeing the firmware upgrade pop-up but I did not see any resolution. Anyone know what's going on and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Curt
