XLifter latest firmware

 

Firmware upgrade information:

The Xlifter is equipped with a wireless firmware update facility. New features can be added in the future.  The control module is updated via a special built-in WiFi hotspot. The EAS unit firmware is updated consequently from the XLifter controller.
There are two firmware update methods:

1. Mobile APP upgrade: When you connect the mobile app, the XLifter firmware version is checked automatically. If the app contains more recent firmware, an automatic upgrade is offered. This is an automatic, easy way for most common use.

2. Conventional manual update: Please watch the XLifter firmware upgrade video guide on youtube and see Chapter 8 of the XLifter user manual for specific details.  The section below contains manual update firmware binaries.
