Re: Brick my Nano


 

Bob & Dick,Please refer to the forum Wiki and files sections for answers to your questions.? There are links at the bottom of every forum email message or to the top left of the webpage.?
There are instructions there on how to update.?
You can do this from Windows (preferred) or Linux a little more involved.?
I am investigating a way to do it with Android but that is even less inviting at this point.?

There are two ways, each requiring special software or hardware.? The hardware is a little item that costs a few bucks and is made by/for one of the manufacturers of the processor.
I also haven't been able to find a program to run from android.
Since I am actually happy with the way my nanoVNA works, I probably won't go to the trouble or risk to update it.

Dumb Question time ...

I see many comments about updating the firmware,
but nothing on a procedure to do so ?

Does it automatically update once the Nano senses a
firmware update or is there more too it ?

Thanks, Dick, W1KSZ

What are the chances that I brick my NanoVNA when trying to upload a new firmware?

? ? ? Very, very slim, I would say.? There are probably several billion
of those processors in use in various gadgets around the world, many of
which get updated regularly.? Some people update their Nanos on a near
daily basis, and the developers might update several or even dozens of
times in a day.? I wouldn't worry about it.
