Its noted on the wiki, but maybe not totally clear. Config file created with firmware v1.x are NOT compatible with v2.x firmware.

How it works is that minor revisions, v1.2 with v1.3 for example, CAN share config files. But major revisions, v2.0 with v1.x for example, are not compatible. If you load them in you will get junk and need to reset the controller. In the next version I'll add a check so that it won't allow loading the incompatible config files. (actually the check is in there, but a bug prevented it from working).

Any update on the expansion cards? I'm moving across the pond next month and was hoping that I could get one purchased and delivered before I moved.

Thanks!

Firmware 2.0 only supports one card, but 2.1 will support all 4.

Instructions: http://www.embeddedcontrolconcepts.com/ ... g_Firmware
Did you have a problem with any step in the instructions?

Your post confuses me. What does the demo have to do with updating the firmware on your BCS? The ip address in the dialog box is just a default. You'll have to enter the ip address of the computer running the firmware update program (TFPT server). You can find your ip by typing 'ipconfig' in a command prompt.
