Re: DM42 Firmware V3.2 available
Posted: Sun Jan 07, 2018 12:24 pm
Windows 7 Pro 64; First I updated my beta unit from 3.1 to 3.2. Then I removed the DM42, switched the unit off and turned it on. Then I reconnected the DM42 and activated the USB. Since I always work with TotalCommander, I have compared my backup with the contents of FAT_16. TC hung up, I could not quit it with the TaskManager. It was not possible to eject FAT_16. Cable removed, reset of DM42 with paper clip. I never had a problem with the USB mode of the DM42 before.rprosperi wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2018 1:55 amI just had the exact same issue occur; was just coming here to report this and saw Didier's note.dlachieze wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2018 12:41 amThe update to 3.2 with dm_tool 2.3 was smooth but then I tried to transfer some OFFIMG files and it hung. The DM42 was unresponsive, stuck in USB disk mode, but not anymore recognized by Windows. I had to reset it with a paperclip, then everything worked fine and I was able to transfer the images.
Initially the USB drive connected, then before anything was transferred, it just disconnected (on the PC side - the drive window closed) but the DM42 was frozen in the connected state. The DM42 would not respond to the [EXIT] key. I disconnected the USB cable, and pressed reset with a paperclip. The About screen appeared, and then the DM42 was OK. I then connected again and had no trouble copying files to the USB drive, deleting files on the drive, etc. All seems OK now.
