Updated the firmware on 2 Elk M1G systems today to get up to date, specifically to try and corrected the continued clock issues I seem to have after DST changes. Thought I'd go for the M1XEP 2.x firmware as well for improved email support, etc.
First one went fine. Updated to the latest ElkRP, then updated to the latest M1G firmware, then keypads, then the M1XEP bootware, then firmware. All went without issue.
On the second system everything went fine until the M1XEP bootware. ElkRP said the bootware update was "Done", but the "Done" button could not be pressed (was ghosted). I let it sit for about 30 minutes and had to end the task to exit. Could still ping the M1XEP without issue (static IP).
So, I tried the update again. ElkRP still showed the M1XEP at the original bootware version, told it to update, hung again. I tried this a 3rd time with no difference.
I then thought I'd try rebooting the M1XEP. It never came back up at its old IP address. I power cycled it and now the "Find" button finds it at the default 192.168.0.251, and I can connect to it. However the Bootware version now shows as "Erased" and it will not allow me to load the ver 2.0.2 bootware file or an older 1.2.0 bootware file (says because the version is "Erased").
Any advice on bringing my M1XEP back to life would be appreciated.
Thanks!
