Blinking#

All CTR Electronics devices can be blinked (rapidly flash the LEDs). This can be useful for handling whenever you have duplicate devices using the same ID on the CAN bus.

Field-Upgrade Firmware Version#

Tuner X has improved firmware upgrading functionality by automatically downloading and caching firmware. Upon initial Tuner X launch, the latest firmware for all devices will automatically be downloaded in the background (takes <10s on most internet connections). The individual device page allows you to select specific firmware versions for your device via the firmware dropdown. Batch firmware can also be completed via the batch field upgrade pop-up.

Important

Users should ensure they select Phoenix 6 firmware when using Phoenix 6 API, and Phoenix 5 firmware when using Phoenix 5 API. A single robot project may use both APIs simultaneously.

Firmware version picker

Users can switch between firmware release years by selecting from the dropdown above the firmware selection.

Note

The toggle between firmware years only affects the firmware versions downloaded by Tuner X. Files selected using the “Browse” button are not affected.
