T-Rudder Firmware Update Failure

Postby Mohawk55a » Sat Nov 04, 2023 5:53

Hello,

I'm getting "Device signature not correct" trying to update firmware on my T-Rudder. I'm using the latest downloads from https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/pages/downloads, and I've attached the op1 file generated by using "save" in the bootloader.

I've got the Mk2 Black Box version, and the device is listed as VKBSim T-Rudder v2.11.8 in the bootloader. I'm selecting _BB_Mk2_TRudder_v2_16_5.vkb, and when I click "Flash It!" I get the "Device signature not correct - flash fail" error.

Files versions I'm using:
VKBDevCfg-C_v0.92.88.zip
v2_16_5.zip
ZBootloader2_v1.96.zip

Please assist, thanks!

Unzip this, store in the same folder with zbootloader, run zbootloader, put the bb in bootloader mode, type load in the command line, then try again reflashing.

Thank-you for the response. Unfortunately it is still not working. The .op2 file loads ok, but still getting the same error when flashing the firmware.

Try to select another device from BB Mk2 list. What will you get. Try to apply FW without pedals connected.
PS
What version have you before trying to update? Does it work?

I get the same 'device signature not correct' message with any device I try. Applying FW without the pedals connected also failed with the same message.

FW that shipped with the pedals is v2.11.8 and does seem to work correctly.

Thanks!
