If one of us gets the gen 2 update, all of us can get it from the person who has it. From there we can spread it around so that everyone has a gen 2 firmware.

During the firmware upgrade process, turn off all Wireless Wave Drivers within 20 feet of the two that you will be performing the upgrade process with. Also, move the two drivers that you will be using to upgrade within 3 feet of each other.

On the Gen2 Pump:
Step 1: Prior to powering the unit on, press and hold the Mode button and continue to hold mode as you power on the unit.
Step 2: Continue to hold the Mode button down while the LED is Red for approximatley 10 seconds
Step 3: When the LED toggles between Red and Yellow, the driver is set as the Upgrade Master driver. Release the Mode button
Once the upgrade process is started through the Slave Driver, the Master will flash its LED quickly in the following colors: Red, Green, Red, Blue.

On the VorTech Gen1 pump
Step 1: Prior to powering the unit on, press and hold the Mode and Set buttons and continue to hold them as you power the unit on.
Step 2: Continue to hold the Mode and Set buttons down while the LED is Red for approximatley 10 seconds.
Step 4: Press and hold the Set button for approximatley 10 seonds to start the Firmware Upgrade process.
Step 5: The process is started when the LED flashes White and Blue very quickly. Release the Set button.

The entire upgrade process takes approximately three minutes. The upgrade is still in progress while the Master driver flashes red, green, red, blue quickly and the slave driver flashes blue and white quickly. The process is complete when both drivers flash a LED code with half second flashes. Note: If both WWD’s already have the same firmware revision, the upgrade process will not occur, and the Master will show the Upgrade Completed Successfully LED code.
