    HiFi Firmware update 5.3 (03/20/15)
    1. Improved stability on power-on in vehicles with hard cranking.
    I've downloaded the new files but have a question, since I'm using the HiFi module, do I keep the UCSETHIFI and Voicepak files on the flash drive? These were from 12.31.14 when the new HiFi modules came out. Or do I just need the three files on the USB stick? - privacy key file, bin and setup file? Please advise.

    After you complete the update, you'll just need the privacy key or it will just go back to parking only mode.

    I think I got it. I downloaded the two new files, then I re-downloaded the HiFi Control Module File, and Voicepak File. With the privacy key file already on the USB (I DON'T REMOVE IT FOR ANY REASON) it took the update just fine. Same procedure for my other vehicle, only, no HiFi module, so less files on that USB stick. Seems to be good to go now.

    Dukes, you're right, without the privacy key file, it will revert only to a parking sensor system. I've got multiple copies of each privacy key file saved for each vehicle.

    Yeah.. There was no reason to re-load the voicepack but it would not hurt anything.

    Is there any reason to update the firmware if none of what you've listed applies?

    Yes, There is more to the firmware than what has only been listed and you should update the firmware and stay up to date. We have made a decision to also no longer list any new gun support when added, All this has done in the past is let our competitors know what is new and we spend a lot of money staying on top of everything and there is no point to let other companies know what new guns they should be looking at.

    Ok so i have a few questions.. Im sure it is in this thread some where but didnt feel like going thru 25 pages to find it... I know shame on me ..... So i did the up date and i guess it went fine, but now when i check the sensors it is coming up F2F3 and R1R2? should it say F1F2?.. I check the sensors and they all seem to be operating as they should.
    Next thing, I wanted to set it up so that if im not moving that they are just parking sensors, So if i go thru some place where they now allowed i can just show that they are just parking sensors.. So can someone please tell me what Define pdc speed limit is and define LID speed limit, I know that LID time is the length you set for the system to go into just receive mode...
    I came to the understanding that the LID speed time was so that it will only alert when above the set speed, Which i set it for 12 and then hit it and it went off as if was set to None...

    You found the only bug that we realized with the new firmware. Nothing is wrong with your setup but the ports were accidentally reversed when a check sensor is called (This was already corrected and will be fixed in the next upcoming update in a few weeks). F1 is listed as F3 and vise versa and R1 is listed as R2 and vise versa. In order to make the system act only as parking sensors when traveling under a pre-set speed you need to have the GPS added to the system. If you have GPS attached it will also only ignore alerts if a GPS signal is present. If it does not have a lock it will Jam to make sure you are protected if you lose GPS Signal so if testing in a garage etc with no GPS signal the unit will Jam.
