HEQ5 Pro Firmware Update?
Woodpeckercz replied to chrisund123's topic in Getting Started Equipment Help and Advice
Your HEQ5 has newer rev C controll unit, that is installed in all HEQ5 made since 2019. It uses newer (and quieter) TMC5130 stepper drivers as opposed to the rev B that used A3959 stepper drivers. Rev C also has more powerfull STM32 controller. The difference between firmwares is Rev B - FW: 2.x.xx Rev C - FW 3.x.xx The firmwares are not compatible between boards due to the HW being completely different. Skywatcher website has both firmwares for rev b and c (or Version 2. Version 3.) Hope this cleared things up for you
