Today's firmware update to 1_00_023 ended up successful, but had me worried for a bit.
Everything seemed to go OK until this happened: My windows file copy software does a consistency check after every copy and when I copied the _023.QMX file, it read the copied file and responded with "hash mismatch." Then it quit, and so did any indication of the QMX being a Windows file system. [In hindsight, this makes sense because reading the loaded QMX is really not like reading any other file, and Hans tells us in the Ops Manual that it's not really like any other Windows file.]
?
The BOTHERSOME thing was that the QMX wouldn't start up. I pressed and held the left/VOL encoder several times. Nothing... I tried the USB cable again. Nothing... Then, I wondered if Hans had implemented some alternative way of starting a non-responsive QMX.? Hmmmmm?
?
I pressed both encoders at the same time and VOILA! it started.
?
THANKS Hans! ... or, maybe I was drinking? I had only one beer with lunch.?
