reset tool, A145FW.tar

[copyman]

Does anyone have the firmware reset tool for Biz 224. It is A145FW.tar.

Or can you tell me where it is on the K/M SSD website? I did a search but nothing came up. Looked through the C224 reg & special F/W's and not there.

Thanks

Thanks mx6 but for some reason I got a message it could not open. Can you try sending again or a different way.

Thanks again

Same thing happen. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I click download and it downloads a 10KB tar file. Then what am I supposed to do with it. I usually have to unzip firmware or something?

'TAR' is the correct file format. Here's the instructions:

Copy the .tar file to the root folder of USB flash memory stick.
Install the USB flash memory into USB maintenance slot to download firmware.
Turn the main SW ON.
"Data initialization completed!" is shown.
Turn the main power switch OFF.
Remove the USB flash memory from the MFP maintenance USB port.
Turn the main SW ON. CD390 error is indicated on the operation panel (normal operation).
Let the MFP reboot two times (on its own) until you see the Restore Tab on the control panel.
Touch the "Restore” button then YES to execute the restore data from SSD board to MFP board.
Turn the main SW OFF.
Upload the latest firmware.

SSD motherboard can reset it?

Firmware or reset tool didn't work. Still same problem. Tried swapping from another C224, hdd , ssd board, memory dimms, still same issue. I suspect a problem with MFP board.

This is exactly what is happening:

Power machine on and you hear machine cycle normally, display shows the pillars (or whatever they are), then a dot appears at upper right corner of display like when you have a flash drive in serv slot to update firmware, few mins later this message comes up on display:

Firmware update

Error
This is invalid memory.
Please make sure the external memory.

I know the flash drive & firmware is good because I have used it in other c224's plus if I try and update this machine it gives me checksums on scanner, printer,ADF but shows NG for MFP.

Any help appreciated.

Just to clarfiy, is it C224 or Bizhub 224?

Is the machine connected to network during update? If it is make sure you disconnect it prior to uploading firmware.
opt 2
Try to re-format the stick again and copy only one firmware to the root of the USB.
When uploading, check the machine and type settings!! Then set accordingly and hit FIX

Then try and upload only MFP (this at least make it faster) When it updates MFP reboot and doo the rest ADF, Scanne, Finisher etc

hope this helps.
