Hi all,
We've tuned up a new version of the software. Please give it a try. If you have any questions please let us know.
Thanks!

Firmware Installation
=====================
There are 2 ways to install Acusis firmware updates, either via USB or the XTAG programmer
--- Updating via USB
Use the included 'xmosdfu' upgrade tool to load a new Acusis firmware image (e.g. Acusis_v1.1.2.0.bin). The upgrade tool is included for OSX and Linux (x86_64). A Windows version of the tool is in the works.
To use on Linux:
1. Open a terminal window and cd to this release directory.
2. cd host/Linux
3. sudo ./xmosdfu 0x11 --download ../../firmware/Acusis_v1.1.2.0.bin
To use on Mac:
1. Open a terminal window and cd to this release directory.
2. cd host/OSX
3. ./xmosdfu 0x11 --download ../../firmware/Acusis_v1.1.2.0.bin
On both platforms, you should see output similar to the following:
VID = 0x20b1, PID = 0x11, BCDDevice: 0x100
XMOS DFU application started - Interface 3 claimed
Detaching device from application mode.
Waiting for device to restart and enter DFU mode...
VID = 0x20b1, PID = 0x11, BCDDevice: 0x100
... DFU firmware upgrade device opened
... Downloading image (../../firmware/Acusis_v1.1.2.0.bin) to device
... Download complete
... Returning device to application mode
Afterward, you can verify that the upgrade was installed by running:
./xmosdfu --listdevices
Within the output, you should see the line:
VID = 0x20b1, PID = 0x11, BCDDevice: 0x1120
Where BCDDevice of 0x1120 indicates that v1.1.2.0 firmware is running.
--- Updating via XTAG
It's assumed that XTAG users have already installed the XMOS SDK and have the xflash tool available. To install, open a terminal window and locate the .xe image to install (e.g. Acusis_v1.1.2.0.xe). To install, run xflash:
xflash --no-compression Acusis_v1.1.2.0.xe
You may see a couple warnings with the following output at the end:
