Footswitch extender not recognized

Your footswitch was working before the update or you never tried it?

#30

Yes it was working just fine before. I followed the directions to get it recognized and that went off without a hitch.

Now, that I’ve updated it, it just doesn’t get recognized. I’ve tried various restarts, by unplugging the footswitch and plugging it in again. I’ve turned to MOd of and on again, either with the footswitch attached, or without the footswitch attached and then attaching it.

I’ve also tried resetting just the “internet page”, and also, closing the entire internet browser and starting that up again.

#31

@Treelemon what’s your OS?

#32

Mac OS. Most recent update.

I use Chrome as the web browser. For working with the Mod.

#33

Please try this: Footswitch extender not recognized

#34

The update on my footswitch is already at 0.2.1, but I’ll give that a try this morning.

#35

So I tried that option. I could only get a response by using this

http://download.moddevices.com/releases/cc-firmware/v1/file/FootEx0.2.1.bin

That gives me FootEx0.2.1

I then go to manually install that. It seemed to go ok getting it on to the Duo, but when trying to update the footswitch with it, the footswitch just remains in blank screen. I did the footswitch update as I understood it.

  • Hold down the number on on footswitch
  • Then plug it in to Mod Duo by USB.

I did try using the whole thing link thing, but that doesn’t give me any results.
http://download.moddevices.com/releases/cc-firmware/v1/file/FootEx0.2.1.bin | ssh root@192.168.51.1 "cat > /tmp/cc-firmware.bin"
I may not be understanding fully what that is? I also never was in a position to enter a password.

#36

I just realized what was meant. I am dumb. I am am now using the terminal…sigh

#37

Ok, so I actually followed the directions and got to the point were the open web interface said, “Control Chain firmware device firmware complete!”

So, I plug the footswitch back in with the provided cable and it still doesn’t register as existing. I refreshed the page as well with no difference. I rebooted the Duo again, and came to no difference. Any other suggestions?

#38

Hmm, that’s weird.

You may try to connect the cable on the next port instead of the main one to see if make any difference.

#39

Right now you can also try the new release, please: Release 1.4.2

Hey guys… so…
I tried these steps but my footswitch was never updated…

When I connected the device holding the first footswitch, the display went blank and nothing happend.

I tried waiting for around 2min (since the tip was to wait 20 seconds) and nothing happend.

Can someone help me?

#41

Did you ran that command while the MOD Duo was connected to your PC?
DId it ask for a password?
Did it show a copy progress on the terminal? (like this)

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 18552  100 18552    0     0  46776      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 46730
#42

Yes…
I even tried doing an scp to the duo and overwriting the file.

After that, connected the switch while holding the button… Nothing happend on the duo nor on the web interface…

The switch went blank for a while and then I turned everything off…

#43

That’s kind of where I am too. I even get the web interface to say the controller switch is updated, but it doesn’t recognize the controller…

#44

If you manually update the footswitch firmware, make sure to update the MOD OS version too.
The latest footswitch firmware needs the MOD Duo to be at v1.4.1 or v1.4.2.

#45

Sorry for the delay in my response. I got busy doing some other things.

I have updated the Footswitch to 0.2.1 and the MOD DUO is now at 1.4.3.

I still don’t get the DUO to recognize the footswitch.

#46

Hey guys, how is it going?

Any updates here?

I’m still stuck unable to use my footswitch…

@adewaleandrade I’ve sent you a private message with a possible solution. It was long time ago. Did you check it?
