Problem: Actuator firmware is corrupted e.g. due to upgrade problem
Diagnosis:

After firmware upgrade any digital communication with actuator is impossible.

Causes/solutions:

Cause:

Firmware is corrupted.

Solution:

To activate the actuator bootloader and download new firmware using BusLink.

This is done by strictly following the following procedure:

•  Disconnect actuator communication cable and power cable
•  Start BusLink without any cables connected to the actuator
•  Go to ‘Firmware’ tab
•  Connect ONLY actuator communication cable (USB2LIN)
•  Download new firmware
