Hi All

I have spent hours trying to update the CPU and SCC on my Axpert 5kVA.  I was easily able to update the CPU to 72.60 without a problem but as soon as I try run the IapProgram.exe to update the SCC I get an error "Debug Assertion Failed!"

I have an Axpert MKS 5kVA and have followed the procedure document accurately and made sure the batteries and PV are connected as per the document that comes with the firmware.

I have ensured that my serial port is set to COM1 and tried on two separate PC's, one with a physical serial port and one with a USB to serial adapter.  Both PC's are running Windows 10.  I have also tried using two different copies of the update tool.

Has anyone managed to update the SCC using Windows 10 or have other users only done it using an older version of Windows?

Before I forget... what is the latest firmware version?  Is it 72.70 or is there a new one?

I have just found the solution and posting it here for the benefit of anyone else struggling with this error.

The regsvr32.exe command has to be run as Administrator when updating the SCC otherwise it does not have the permission on to install.

Hi @Garthvs, welcome to the forum. There is a newer patched version of the firmware. @Coulomb fixed the original firmware as it had some stuff not working properly. You can read all about it and download the latest version 72.70b from here. Now it is working as intended.

Thanks Don

I see there is mention of 72.90 in this forum discussion: https://www.energialternativa.info/public/newforum/Discussione.php?55595931&66

I am busy trying to get a copy of the latest one from the manufacturers / importers / distributors (not winning so far).
