sometimes needs to be reinstalled.

necessary. If you see that the player halts, reboots randomly, or you have problems
to access the memory content from your computer, those are signs that the
firmware might be damaged you should reinstall the latest version available.

you want to keep and disconnect the device from your PC, since during the firmware
reinstallation the memory will be formatted and erased. It is also is very important to
make sure that your computer is virus-free and has no halt/lock problems.

from our website www.energysistem.com). Make sure that the firmware you are
installing is for your model, otherwise you will damage the device.

You can run the installation wizard directly with the file “setup.exe” inside the
“Firmware” folder should the autorun not load.
