Please read this whole guide before attempting the upgrade just to be on the safe side.For reference, I am posting the information that is on
Moates.net for the members here. I got on Moates.net today and noticed that the newest firmware (20.9.O as of this time of writing) was available for the Ostrich 2.0 (which is back ordered btw). I think the firmware on my Ostrich was like 20.03.00... which was a little old. I do not know what the newest firmware changes, but I like to keep my stuff updated. Anyhow the procedure is as follows and quoted off of the Moates.net site:
1. Download the utility Firmware Update Utility
and unzip it to the location of your choice.
2. Download the appropriate firmware package for your hardware from the table below and unzip it to the location of your choice (preferably to the same location as the update utility).
3. Connect your hardware to your PC and close all software applications.
4. Start the firmware update utility. Your hardware should be automatically detected. If it isn't, click the "Detect" button
5. Click the "Browse" button in the update utility and browse to the firmware package you downloaded and unzipped in step 2 above.
6. If the package and hardware match, the "Update" button should be available. Press it now.
7. Once complete, the updater should notify you of success and display the new version information.
You will have to visit the page I linked in the top of this thread to download the newest firmware as Craig doesn't have a dynamic link to the whatever newest firmware he has uploaded on his site. Not that big of a deal. I'd also like to note, I backed up my tune using DS-Map Editor before I did the firmware upgrade just to be safe. I recommend doing this in case something doesn't go right. I am a little more paranoid than most, but I will say that after the upgrade, my tune was still in tact the way it should have been so the upgrade didn't really mess with any of the data on the "chip" itself. Happy upgrading!
