How to update the MOD software

Starting from 1.0.0 users are notified when an update is available as soon as you start the MOD web interface.
To update, click on the update icon in the bottom-right, then 'Download', and finally 'Upgrade Now'.

Manual update

If you want to do a manual update, follow these steps:

  1. Turn on your MOD
  2. Let it boot until you see "Knob 1" etc.
  3. Press and hold the left knob until a menu appears in the display
  4. Turn the knob in order to select "System Upgrade"
    1. Note -> In newer devices, turn the left knob to the "System" option and then the right knob to "System upgrade"
  5. Select 'YES' and while holding the left footswitch (Duo) or bottom left square button (DuoX), click on the right knob
  6. Let go of the footswitch and knob and wait
  7. The MOD will now enter restore mode. Please wait.
  8. Connect the MOD to your PC if not done yet and wait for a new mass storage drive to appear
  9. Copy the modduo.tar file onto the new drive and use your OS option to safely remove the drive
  10. Remove the USB cable connecting your PC to the MOD

At this point, the MOD will start auto-updating. DO NOT TURN IT OFF! Please wait until the update finishes. The MOD will auto-reboot when the process is complete.

Note: Sometimes the auto-reboot may not occur. If your MOD does not auto-reboot after 15 minutes, something went wrong. Please power off the device and run the process again from step 1.

User data will remain untouched.
