After you do the ON-D then ON-C, you quickly depress both the + and - keys simultaneously. Hold them down for a little while, say 5 seconds or so; then release them. That should put you in the mode where you can update the code. One way to exit that mode is to select the (2) SELFTEST and then ON-C to exit that routine.

I am running build 2353 on my Sony Vaio and it's very hard to use. When you click on the drop-down list containing the list of the available connection it very briefly display the content and then close the list. So it takes me several minutes sometimes to finally click on the HPx9+... it's really a pain As soon as I start Conn4x I here the fan of my laptop going like crazy.. JY
From: Paul on 11 Sep 2006 02:26 The problem is in the Australian Regional Settings - when changed to USA locale the software does not produce the error message. Which explains why there were so few reports on this problem ....
