Updating via the Internet:
If you already have 1.0.7 and below and are connected to the internet and have auto updates on, a pop up will inform you that there is an update and the machine will update automatically via the internet.

G61, G61.1, G64 would seem to be useful. Do we need to get post processor changes to enable?

Hi Russ - likely. The post processor would have to include those codes in the output. Though I’m still struggling to see the utility in a real world situation - I just need to do more research.

How long does an update usually take on the Internet? I selected update and it’s been running for about 15 minutes still on the firmware upgrade please wait window

7

I took the internet out of the equation and used a usb drive. I turned my back and it was done.

8

Well, now what.
It was locked up updating over the internet, so i turned it off and back on to update via the usb, and now it won’t boot up at all.
Onefinity?? now what?

No monitor or fan either. DOA. Any way out of this?

10

No fan!!! At first I was thinking of a corrupted sd card (if you want to reflash it https://github.com/OneFinityCNC/onefinity-firmware/releases/download/v1.0.7/onefinity-raspi-1.0.7.zip). unzip the file and follow ( Installing operating system images using Windows - Raspberry Pi Documentation ) It’s 1.0.7 so you will have to upgrade again. Suppose to be very fast.

@OnefinityCNC was there ever a fix for the laser not turning on with the MDI commands after the laser was homed?

13

I updated via internet and it took maybe 30 seconds.

14

This is going to be worked on in the next update…

@onefinitycnc I sure hope so, it takes a lot of time turning it off and back on between every project.

Control view regressed in v1.0.8b1, can not click 'set zero' or 'home' after playing and stopping gcode. · Issue #49 · OneFinityCNC/onefinity-firmware · GitHub This probably didn’t make the cut.

17

What password to upgrade did you use please? It won’t take onefinity for me.

18

password to update will either be buildbotics or onefinity

19

I had the same problem but if I remember right I tried no password and it took.

20

Just confirming… you can update via Web Interface if say using a laptop to control the 1F?

Seems to be stuck here on “firmware upgrading, loss of power, etc…”… 30 minutes – high speed internet otherwise…?

21

Yes Matt you can do it from the interface as well. I’ve done it that way twice. If its stuck I would reboot as it should only take <30 seconds.

tried upgrading from controller and web interface, stuck on both

Warren,

Did you try shutting down and rebooting, then try to reinstall? If that does not work then you probably need to send a note to support as that should work.
