So... do I have to remove the ROM chip and update it in a chip reader?
Hi again,
It can be done, however there are some difficulties to overcome:
- I'm not sure if the original chips are erasable/reprogrammable.
- Compatible electrically updatable replacement chips are hard to find.
- Sourcing a chip (or binary file) with required firmware version, is also tricky.
Not impossible some on here have done this, try a Google search, but not without quite a lot of time and effort.
BTW you can't use the 5000C firmware file (.mfp/.mfq) you have as that is only for the 24bit version.
What version of firmware is your 5000C running? (When in standby press display to cycle round the version information).
Regards,
Carl
