Post by Jani Soderhall » Thu Aug 14, 2008 10:06 am

Here are the instructions on how to update a Trackmate 6.x (only 6.3 or later) to 6.8.
(Contact me, Marcus, Donald or Corky to obtain the version 6.8 file)

Step 1
I've attached Megaload This is a program required to reprogram the Trackmate.
Install this program on your computer (it may require you to first install .NET from Microsoft).

Step 2
Run MegaLoad
You need to do three settings

1) Click on Open (File to program in flash) Select skate2007_68.hex
2) Select com port. You may need to use control panel to figure out what com port you have on your computer
3) Com port Speed Select 9600

Step 3
Connect com cable from PC to Trackmate.

Step 4
Make sure you have the com cable connected first.
Now power Timer Box, you should see something happening on Megaload program, it should flash the module and give a message.
It should list a bunch of messages in the message box, and say its successful.

Step 5
Now you're done.
Disconnect com cable
Test by power on and check version number scroll by, it should now be 6.8.
