Hey Guys,

I am running 5.05.04RC5. I finally figured out how to hook up my MM2 to update its firmware, but I am a little condused as to exactly what the current version is?

Can someone post a link?

Also, Try as a I might, I could not get the mac version of STM32CubeProgrammer to open on mac. Perhaps it is due to the recent Mac OS changes?

Anyway, I was able to bring a Windows laptop from work, but I still need the current version file.

Any help?

Thanks,

Mike

Download from Geoff's site either 5.05.05 or the latest 5.05.06 beta - your choice. His site always has the latest official release and the latest beta. Known bugs in the official release are also linked and these are normally fixed in the latest beta but it is a beta

Following the posting is really confusing!

The current Release version is 5.05.05

The current Beta test version is something like 5.05.06B3 but it's a moving target.

You can find both on this page where they are updated frequently :

You might look at the manual, flashing the firmware is covered in the appendix along with where to get the files.

Mac has a problem with Java versions. The Mac version of STMCubeProgrammer needs something like Java V1.8 to run on Mac OS. I have heard rumours that you must un-install all later versions of Java to get it to work, but I haven't tried it yet.
