Update first batch of 300 servo v4 prior to deployment |
||||||||
Issue descriptionThe current fw on the v4 have a bug where they don't power on the uServo upon init (but servod will turn it on). This will cause problems during deployment since the first deployment will fail since none of the uServo controls will be available, rerunning deployment will work but ideally we should update the fw on these v4. I'm working on an update script and will give instructions on how to update the v4 in a bit. Once that's available, Haowei and team can start updating the v4s (all that's needed is a linux box and a standard usb micro cable).

Confirmed with Kevin that this is NOT an issue with the next batch, only the first 300 are impacted.

Attached is tarball of all the files needed to run the script. 1. Set it up, just d/l the tarball onto a linux box that has python (#tar -xvf update_v4_fw.tar.gz). 2. Connect up the servo v4 to the linux box via standard usb type A micro cable. 3. Run the script (#./update_v4.py) 4. repeat steps #2 and #3 Make sure only one servo v4 is attached to the linux box when running the script. Let me know if you have any problems with the script or errors you hit.

Note that ./fw_update.py can take an -s serialno argument

Thanks Nick for that note, it might be simpler to just do them serially to avoid pulling the wrong servo when programming multiple in parallel. Assigning to Haowei now. Haowei, please close out this bug when all 300 are flashed, thank you!
