5 | | -## Firmware Installation |
6 | | - |
7 | | -If a previous version of the Dash Gauges firmware is installed on your device's ESP32, you can update easily using the pre-compiled binary. Enter the Config Portal, click on "Update" and select the pre-compiled binary file provided in this repository ([install/dashgauges-A10001986.ino.nodemcu-32s.bin](https://github.com/realA10001986/Dash-Gauges/blob/main/install/dashgauges-A10001986.ino.nodemcu-32s.bin)) in the top file selector and click *Update*. |
8 | | - |
9 | | -If you are using a fresh ESP32 board, please see [dashgauges-A10001986.ino](https://github.com/realA10001986/Dash-Gauges/blob/main/dashgauges-A10001986/dashgauges-A10001986.ino) for detailed build and upload information, or, if you don't want to deal with source code, compilers and all that nerd stuff, go [here](https://install.out-a-ti.me) and follow the instructions. |

11 | | - *Important: After a firmware update, the "empty" LED might blink for short while after reboot. Do NOT unplug the device during this time.* |

13 | | -## Sound-pack installation |
14 | | - |
15 | | -The sound-pack is not updated as often as the firmware itself. If you have previously installed the latest version of the sound-pack, you normally don't have to re-install it when you update the firmware. Only if the "Empty" LED signals "SOS" (three short blinks, three long blinks, three short blicks) during boot, a re-installation/update is needed. |
16 | | - |
17 | | -The first step is to download "install/sound-pack-dgXX.zip" and extract it. It contains one file named "DGA.bin". |
18 | | - |
19 | | -Then there are two alternative ways to proceed. Note that both methods *require an SD card*. |
20 | | - |
21 | | -1) Through the Config Portal. Click on *Update*, select the "DGA.bin" file in the bottom file selector and click *Upload*. |
22 | | - |
23 | | -2) Via SD card: |
24 | | -- Copy "DGA.bin" to the root directory of of a FAT32 formatted SD card; |
25 | | -- power down the Dash Gauges, |
26 | | -- insert this SD card into the slot and |
27 | | -- power up the Dash Gauges; the audio data will be installed automatically. |
