hi, I am new here. Read a lot of posts!
Tried to upgrade the firmware from AC19 to AC29. Followed all the steps meticulously. Over again.
It doesn't work. Whatever I do Miss Lukas wishes us a safe drive
and starts recording.
The time setting is accurate. But I see 11.17 in between the time over and again. What does that mean? I waited several minutes, car running. Firmware still seems to be AC19.
I do not see 'upda' .
Please help.
The 11.17 you see is the current date, as you must have that selected in your Lukas Desktop software, to display the date, which is optional.
First thing is did you download and install the newest Lukas Ace Viewer programe first, before you installed your update ?
Format your SD card using your camera( insert SD card in camera, and hold both the bottom left and bottom right buttons at the same time, until the option format is displayed ), Do this before you copy and paste the 3 files you downloaded to your SD card.
Completely remove existing Lukas viewer from your PC and install new Lukas viewer linked below to enable the new functions after the firmware updates.

• Firmware Version: Ac29

<< Cautions on updating >>
Please read carefully before updating.
※ How to update
1. Download the attached firmware file.
2. Back up important data then format the SD card through Lukas camera.
(Those who use 64/128GB memory cards, format through Lukas viewer or black box device)
3. Copy unzipped 3 download files(firmup, firmware, updatef) into the SD card.
4. Start a car engine. (To prevent power cut-off while updating)
5. Connect power then turn on the black box. When ‘SD_Fail’ appears on the segment window, insert the SD card.
6. ‘Upda’ appears on the segment window.
7. After the update is complete, black box automatically reboots.
8. The update is complete.
(Normal operation starts after formatting from the device. In case of ‘memory allocation 64KB on Windows 7’ except
