Default upgrading software on Hobbywing 120A v2.1

Right, im not too sure what to do to be honest. Ive got the 2 in 1 program box and i want to put the most up to date software on esc.

What ive done so far is;
Installed the software from the disk provided and plugged in the program box. It says there is an update but it says failed to download.
The current software on the box is V1.07_110119

How do i get the latest software to download. What have i failed to do (probably something daft!) Should i have connected the esc up to the box at the same time?

Heyelp!

The program box displays this

Device type 2 in 1 program box
Hardware version HW310 V1.0
Software version V1.07_110119
Choice version V1.06.100512 (no other choices)

i take it that this is out of date?

When you figure it out you must down lowed the software twice . that's to the two in on box, and the speedo. If you google hobbywing you will find a tutorial on down loading the software.

The video does explain everything really well.

I did the typical man thing and ignored all instructions. Did the software mod only to find that the program box wouldn't talk to the new software. I hadn't updated the program box!!

Re-did the lot again and hey presto it all looks good.

Watch all the video and even the bit at the very end about resetting the speedo to the transmitter is important. Remember to plug the speedo back into the receiver to do this, I didn't, then wondered why it wasn't working.
