SOFTWARE UPDATE PROCEDURE
1. Copy and save the database file(s) (in .db format) from the application folder (%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Laserwar\Alphatag) to your computer.
2. Update the application to version 2.0.0.
PROCEDURE FOR UPDATING FIRMWARE ON HIT SENSORS, TAGGERS AND SHOCK BRACELETS
1. First of all we will update the taggers.
Taggers with 11.01.14.XX firmware must be updated to 11.01.14.22. This firmware can be downloaded from the link.
Then firmware them with “Revision 01, version 11.03.15.38”.
Taggers with firmware 11.2.14.15 must be updated to “Revision 02, version 11.03.15.38”.
Weapons with updated firmware will not connect to headbands with “old” firmware.
Please note that after firmware flashing all sound effects will be removed from the taggers. You will be able to restore them in the tactical specifications settings section (the “Sounds” tab).
Tick the three checkboxes as in the screenshot and click “Upload Selected”. The software will start recording the files and then the tagger will restart with the restored sounds.
2. Updating the shock bracelets.
Write the firmware AT_SHOCKER_06_015_005 to them.
3. Updating headbands, helmets, vest.
The hit sensors should initially have firmware 11.01.14.41 (or 11.01.14.42). If you have a different version, you need to install the most current one. Download the 11.01.14.41 file by clicking here.
Then write the AT_CORE_11_1_15_49 firmware to the headbands (helmets, vest). The sensors will reboot after the update, and connect to the taggers.
Please note that after the update, an additional hit sensor and two taggers will be active by default in headbands (helmets, vest). Don’t forget to change the settings via admin mode by triple-clicking the power button.
