How to update the MOD software
Starting from 1.0.0 users are notified when an update is available as soon as you start the MOD web interface.
To update, click on the update icon in the bottom-right, then 'Download', and finally 'Upgrade Now'.
Manual update
If you want to do a manual update, follow these steps:
- Turn on your MOD
- Let it boot until you see "Knob 1" etc.
- Press and hold the left knob until a menu appears in the display
- Turn the knob in order to select "System Upgrade"
- Select 'YES' and while holding the left footswitch click on the knob
- Let go of the footswitch and knob and wait
- The MOD will now enter restore mode. Please wait.
- Connect the MOD to your PC if not done yet and wait for a new mass storage drive to appear
- Copy the modduo.tar file onto the new drive and use your OS option to safely remove the drive
- Remove the USB cable connecting your PC to the MOD
At this point the MOD will start auto-updating. DO NOT TURN IT OFF! Please wait until the update finishes. The MOD will auto-reboot when the process is complete.
User data will remain untouched.
