In order to update the firmware, by putting the Hand Remote in Bootloader mode, one must do the following:
Connect the turned off hand remote to a Windows laptop with the supplied charge/data cord.
Have this .zip file downloaded and extracted to three files.
For simplicity, open only Windows Explorer. on the computer.
In order to trigger bootloader mode, the hand remote needs to perform a full bootup after six interrupted bootups. The analogy I can provide you is cycling your car ignition without starting the engine. A interrupted bootup is a bootup while holding the down button terminated before the bootup song ends. Let me add some more context. If you have existing code A and or B, simply turn it off mid song. Code C and newer, the bootups are counted and displayed to you when you bootup holding down the bottom button at bootup. For reference, see this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WA9jr_pnVg4&t=17s It is minute 1:20 to minute 2:00
Step 4 done correctly, the seventh uninterrupted bootup will have a new drive show up in Windows Explorer called G1_BOOT.
In this drive you will overwrite the three files with the three new files downloaded in the zip provided in this link.
File transfer takes no more than one second. Done right, the bootup now has a different song indicating the code version.
WARNING: DO NOT PUT THIS FIRMWARE ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE G1 HAND REMOTE
NOTE 1: YOU WILL NEED TO PERFORM A CALIBRATION ONCE TO HAVE THE NUMBERS MATCH
NOTE 2: RECEIVER IS TO BE TURNED ON FIRST IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE HAND REMOTE BOOTUP SIGNAL.
