upgrade firmware on mimaki cg fx 130

[jmeeller]

Hello ALL! I am connecting a CG-FX 130 to FineCut for the first time. I was on the phone with Mimaki today and they could not help. Connection test worked great, but when you go to actually send out it it will not connect. I also have a CG-FXII in house so I connected that and it connected immediately. The only t hing I can come up with is firmware.

Does anyone have the firmware update software and the 3.02 version for CG-FX which is apparently the last update. YES - I did ask him and they have changed their policy and will not help you with the firmware.

THANKS IN ADVANCED!

Can give the firmware updater a try, but usually gives a message that the firmware is a special version and to contact your dealer or something.

Should be installed already with RasterLink, but that's the standalone one.

Haven't tried that. I do have Rasterlink installed. I read you can brick the board by installing 3.4 (newest version for FXII. So really like for 3.02

Might let you set the version, but yeah, nay botched update can brick things in general.

How are you connecting them to the plotter? USB directly to PC or over an Ethernet network?
