Loading Software to MASSO G3

Install or update the controller software from a USB flash drive. The same steps work for a first install and for an update. Each release is complete, so you do not need to install earlier versions first.

Applies to
MASSO G3
You need
USB flash drive, FAT32, up to 32 GB
CAUTION
Back up your settings before you update. Open F1-Setup › Load & Save Settings and press Save to File and Save Printable File. See Load and Save Calibration Settings.

Steps

1
Prepare the USB flash drive
  • Format it as FAT32 with an MBR partition table. GPT is not supported. Drives over 32 GB may not support FAT32.
  • Create a folder called MASSO in the root of the drive and copy the software file into it.
  • Use a branded drive. Unbranded drives are a common cause of install problems.
2
Open the software loading screen
Plug the drive into the MASSO G3, switch on and immediately press F1 repeatedly until the loading screen appears. If it does not appear, switch off and try again.
3
Install and restart
Select the software version with the up/down arrow keys and press Enter. When loading is complete, press ESC. The MASSO G3 restarts with the new software.
INFORMATION
Most loading problems happen because F1 was not pressed repeatedly in the first four seconds after power-up.
AFTER UPDATING
Compare your settings with the printable settings file you saved before the update.
