Updating Firmware

Current Scream Relay Firmware Version: 1.1.0

Last updated: May 15th, 2023

Firmware is the software that runs on the controller. It's highly recommended that you always upgrade to the latest software. The version that your controller is running is printed towards the top of the log files that it creates on the SD card.

To update your firmware, download this file: scream_relay_firmware.bin

And place it on the SD card. Do not change the file's name and do not put it within a folder on the SD card. If you've downloaded multiple updates make sure it remains named scream_relay_firmware.bin and not something like scream_relay_firmware (2).bin
