Firmware Update

To set up for an upgrade you will need a PEAK CAN USB to CAN adapter (provided by Barrett). Plug the DB9 end of the PEAK CAN adapter into a straight through DB9 extender and plug this into the DB9 on the front of the console.

Version check

By typing

burt-util mainboard get_versions

You should get

Mainboard Version: 1.6.1 (3fce96e)
Puck 1: 1.11.0
Puck 2: 1.11.0
Puck 3: 1.11.0
Elbow: 0.3.3
CPI: 0.0.0

if your Mainboard version is older than 1.6.1, then follow the upgrading steps below.
