AL Priority Firmware Update History (Running History)

Does not matter. Just run a factory reset and load new configuration file and you will be good to go.

Reset, and upped a new config file, and all good now, thanks.

I performed a "Reset Defaults and Memorize Sensors" on both ALP systems. I then inserted the flash drive into each ALP system's USB port. System said "Data Stored" within a couple of seconds. I checked all functions possible via the Yellow Menu....all were what I had selected/downloaded. I then performed the "Print Use and Statistics" function for both systems, printed the results, and compared them to the Configuration file with 3 Profiles which I had downloaded. All device information and Profile A/B/C Settings match exactly what I had selected. I don't know what caused the CHECKSUM FAILED message, but everything appears normal and OK. I'll probably be checking one of my car's ALP systems in the near future to verify the system is operating correctly and providing maximum protection.

Thanks for the advice.

I received the checksum error when I first installed the firmware update. I downloaded a fresh copy of the new firmware a second time but it did not reinstall after plugging the USB stick into the control box a second time. However, everything appears to have installed correctly the first time. I'm up and running with the new ALP connect and the dual radar antenna.

You need to load a new setup file since several setup options changed.

I was going to ask if this would be necessary for those without the Net Radar. Guess it is. I'll generate a new config.alp when I download the new firmware hopefully today.

I suggest if a new firmware requires creating a new configuration, that it's mentioned in the post announcing/describing the new firmware.

Everyone will need to load a new settings file after this update. If you are only running Laser you can use the factory defaults which would be Laser Defense with a LID Setting of 4 Seconds.

Did an OTA firmware update with my original USB stick in situ (have privacy key setup). All went as expected with no checksum failed warning. The old config file is on the USB stick so does it mean I have a default settings (4secs jam) or my previous settings which was infinite?

You should still create and load a new setup file since some option values have changed in the back-end.

On http://alpupdate.com/Firmware it states current firmware is "is 5.2.3/6.7 released 2016-03-23".

I downloaded it anyway and will verify the firmware after installing - posting this as an FYI to BRD.

Yes, We already informed people of this. We always release to members quietly here before releasing to the public. What you will download will be 5.2.5 and the official emails and site information will probably get updated tomorrow.

I see that VOLO just got some new lidar, BUT did not get near close enough to see what they're using?? He tried like hell to hit my front which has NO plate and even the RX65 M4 Bel I was running got an alert. Noobs!!
