When you register at Beoforum.dk you will find the config tool 6.62 under Beosektionen...Beo5Beo6...subforum;;Konfiguration Software
The usual software issue when updating ConfigTool
So, finally we have the new configuration file (thknx Erik).
Can someone of the forum users explain how to update the firmware to 3.30a (without dealer login).
You will help many users, because of the battery drain of Beo6 (mine too)
Problem solved. If the Beo6 is flashed initially on a 32 bits computer then you can not install the firmware with a 64 bits computer. So you need a 32 bits Windows version in this case and all is werking fine. The drivers 32 and 64 bits are not compatible with each other.
Hi Solex,
I downloaded config tool 6.62 from beoforum and installed it on my win7-64 machine. This works fine, so now I can finally get rid of my old xp-32 laptop which I kept only for use with config tool 6.00.
With your last sentence, do you mean that I will be able to update the firmware of the Beo6 to 3.30 when I install config tool 6.62 (temporarily) on my old laptop and update the Beo6 once more from there?
Thanks!
Joost
It seems that the firmware 3.30a is not embedded in the config tool 6.62. Only dealers should have the new firmware, because the CT is updated online at initial startup.
With CT 6.62 you can not connect to the server, but with previous CT no problems to connect with server.
What you can do, to get the firmware 3.30a is:
1. Start with a previous configuration tool (f.i. 6.00.02) and log in on the server (so uncheck work offline). Then the server will update the config tool.
2. Download a (new) configuration, what you created in CT 6.62 to the CT 6.00.02.... you will get the message "invalid configuration ' But.....because of the CT 6.00.02 is updated by the server, you have firmware 3.30a.
3.Start CT 6.62 and load the configuration again.......now you have firmware 3.30a and everything is working fine.
Hi Solex,
Do I need user credentials to log in to CT 6.00.02 to the server?

Hi Solex,
Another question: Can I have two versions of the configuraton tools on my computer at the same time (CT 6.00.02 and CT 6.62)?

You can log- in with 6.0 and download ( so donot work offline). You can have CT 6.0 and 6.62 at same time on your pc, but have to install in different maps.
Hi Solex,
Yes you are write, now I have the 3.30a Firmware downloaded and it workes!
Thanks!
Hi Solex,
thanks for your instructions. I have now software 3.30 and everything works fine.
regards
Martin
