In case the control unit has a PIN and the user does not know the PIN , it is possible to
reconfigure the control unit if we perform a factory reset. This is done by plugging in
SMARTHANDY4 EC while holding down the right and left keys.
STEPS TO UPGRADE FW:
1.- Install DPA Upgrade SW on a PC and run it.
2.- Connect SmartHandy EC to PC via USB/micro-USB cable.

4.- SmartHandy 4 must be put into "upgrade mode" if an upgrade is required. To do this, plug in
SmartHandy4 EC by holding down the ENTER key.
5.- SmartHandy 4 EC will display "upgrade mode" on the display and the "upgrade CPU" button
on the SW DPA Upgrade will be activated.
6.- Click the button and wait until the update is complete.
7.- SmartHandy4 EC will restart and the DPA Upgrade will show OK.
8.- Note: In the event that the FW version to be installed is V_37 or higher and is done from a
version less than V_29 the equipment will need to be factory reset.
