I can't flash my iConnect

Post by MrPippoTN »

Hello. I can't flash my iConnect, and I don't know why.
I've downloaded the meteohub image frome here: http://wiki.meteohub.de/Images
(iConnect compressed USB stick image - Version 4.9)

Then I started to follow this instructions: http://wiki.meteohub.de/Setup_iConnect

So... I copied the img on my usb stick with ImageWriter (Windows 8 ) and I tried the patching process:

I completely disconnected the iConnect (power, USB devices) and connected the created Meteohub USB stick to one of the four USB ports and connected the ethernet cable of my router.
I located the reset pin hole at the rear of the iConnect. I pressed reset button behind pin hole at the rear. I inserted a paper clip end into the reset pin hole and pressed slightly.
I kept the reset button pressed while connecting the power cord to the iConnect again. I kept the reset button pressed until blue flashing power LED changed to red. So I released the reset button BUT the power LED DID NOT start flashing blue after a while.

At this step it stays red and the patch doesn't go on.

WHY?

Question. Perhaps my usb stick is not SLC type (I don't know the way to know it, so I just decided to try). Could this be the problem?

iConnect is picky on USB sticks during boot. Please try another stick.
What stick are you using? You find hints about working sticks in the section of the forum.
