UPDaTInG fIRMWaRe
ONLY APPLICABLE TO V2.0 AND ABOVE
From time to time we may upgrade the firmware on Silk LED to optimise its performance or introduce new
features.
No special programming hardware is required for this upgrade and the latest firmware will be available as a
download from the Rosco website at www.rosco.com/silk/firmware
1) Plug a USB lead into the driver board and the PC with the Silk powered off. The USB port can be found on the
underside of the electronics pod centred below the two control knobs.
2) Hold the encoder button down and still holding the button down switch on the power.
3) Release the encoder button after a few seconds and wait until Windows™ detects the SILK as a drive, this can
take a few seconds.
4) Open the drive.
5) Delete the current firmware.bin file.
6) Copy the new file to the now empty drive.
7) Wait a couple of seconds for the device to be programmed.
8) Safely remove the device from Windows™/eject like you do with a USB stick.
9) Cycle the power on the SILK unit and it will now boot the new code.
