Hi, I already sent an email to the lynx support, but I would like to know if some of you can give me any advice...
This is what happened:


Hi, I downloaded the dives from my lynx (connect to pc), then did 2 times the compass calibration procedure. Then I tried to upload the new 1.13 firmware with the 3.02 firmware updater. Before beginning the upload (the lynx was still waiting to connect) the unit shutted it off. I turned it on and it did a battery check. 3.46V, green status. I tried to connect it to the pc again to transfer the new 1.13 firmware but before starting the connection the lynx shutted it off again and it doesn't turn on anymore.


This the firmware updater log. Unfortunately there's no time for the entries, anyway the first two fails were while the lynx shutted it off:

I doubt something went wrong during the upload, becouse on the lynx screen I did not see any advice of the firmware uploading... Anyway the unit shutted it off alone without any visible advice.

Thanks to the Liquivision customer care everything is ok now.
For those will have the same matter. Simply put the lynx over the "connect to pc interface" and do the upload again, even if the lynx is off.
Better, do your upload with the Lynx shutted down.

Really good customer care service, Liquivision! They answered in a bounce of minutes.
