Firmware UpdatesUpdated 4 days ago

This is necessary to ensure Android Phones will connect to PlantWave via Bluetooth. You will update from a computer, not from your phone.

What you need:

• A computer running Chrome or Edge. Phones and tablets cannot update the device.
• A USB cable that carries data, not a charge-only cable.
• Enough charge to switch the device on. If your PlantWave has been sitting a while, plug it in for a couple of hours first.
• A few minutes where you can leave the device plugged in.

Updating the device:

1. With your PlantWave switched off, plug it into your computer with the USB cable.
2. If your computer asks whether to allow the accessory, choose Allow.
3. Switch the PlantWave on.
4. Open plantwave.com/update and click Find my PlantWave.
5. Your browser opens a small window listing connected devices. Choose PlantWave Serial and click Connect.
6. Click Install, you will be prompted to turn your PlantWave off and back on once during the process.
7. Once complete you will need to forget the old Bluetooth pairing. The update gives your PlantWave new pairing keys, so the pairing saved on your phone no longer matches it. Open your phone's Bluetooth settings, find PlantWave in the saved devices, and choose Forget. If you have never paired this phone with your PlantWave, you can skip this step.

If the updater does not find your PlantWave:

• Plug straight into the computer rather than through a hub or a dock.
• Try a different USB cable. Some cables only carry power.
• If your PlantWave appears as PlantWave MIDI, click Switch mode over Bluetooth on the same page, then unplug the cable and plug it back in.
