828x Firmware Update not possible

Post by Harry »

I want to upgrade my 828x from 1.04 to FIRMWARE 1.06.
But if I proceed in the written way:

1)Turn off the device.
2)Disconnect the FireWire (or ThunderBolt) cable from back panel if it is connected.
3)Connect the device to the computer via USB.
4)Press and hold the Page knob on the front panel and turn on the device.
5)Release the Page knob when the bootloader version number appears on the LCD.
6) Open the firmware updater program and follow the on-screen instructions to install the update.

nothing happens. No bootloader version number appears on the LCD!
And yes, the power adapter is on place ;-)

Has anyone an idea?
