Firmware Update

Prerequisites

This update guide assumes that you have the following:

• A mower with the OpenMowerOS running on it.

• Important: verified that the /boot/openmower/mower_config.txt file has the correct hardware version set (OM_HARDWARE_VERSION). If this is wrong, the wrong firmware will be installed on your device. Check the Manual Firmware Installation guide on how to find that value.

• The Raspberry Pi is running, and you are able to connect to it via ssh

• The mower is connected to the internet

Step 1: Run the Firmware Update Script

The OpenMowerOS image contains a firmware update script which will download and install the latest firmware version for you.

In order to run the script, execute the following commands:

• OpenMowerOS version:
• 2024.03.0+
• 0.0.1

# Make sure that you are in your home directory (the script is located there):
cd ~/
# Execute the script:
~/openmoweros-tools/fetch_and_upload_firmware.sh

# Make sure that you are in your home directory (the script is located there):
cd ~/
# Execute the script:
~/fetch_and_upload_firmware.sh

If everything works as expected, the output should look like this:

Step 2: Done 🎉

That’s everything you need to do.
