Update now
A fix update, installed from a USB drive.
How to update
- Download the firmware ZIP for your exact model from Nanlite's firmware page (button below), unzip it and copy the firmware file (.upd) to the root of a USB drive formatted as FAT, FAT32 or exFAT, without renaming it. If the ZIP has more than one firmware file, copy them all (they must be the same version).
- Plug the drive into the light's USB port.
- Press MENU, turn the right knob to FIRMWARE UPDATE and press it: the light searches the drive for the firmware.
- Select UPDATE and press the right knob. The light restarts by itself when it is done.
If it says "NO FIRMWARE FOUND", check the file is the right one, in the root of the drive, and the drive format; then try formatting the drive again or another drive.
