alexwoj 0 Posted March 27, 2015 I hope this finds any helpful member as I am stuck with a brick of a plotter.So, I went to update the firmware for Graphtec FC7000-130 (USB) to v2.10 (from Graphtec website) to get the perf option. Downloaded all the updates on that page (Windows 7, 64 bit) and thought I followed the instructions well, it started loading, but now it gives me 3 different errors:1. Straight power up - [bOOT START ERROR]or 2. Power Up, holding Left & Right, goes to Update / Yes then shows [CHECK SUM ERROR]or 3. Power Up, holding Left & Right, goes to Update / Yes then shows [PLEASE SEND PRGM] - I hit PRINT from the Data File Output Utility and [Cannot Access Output Destination] Pops up.What Gives? What should I do next? I attached a screen shot of all the relevant info I could fit. Please feel free to contact me by whatever means are most convenient to you. My contact info is below.Thanks for your help!Alex WojciecowskiSocha Visual Inc.alex@sochavisual.com(415) 508-5927 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted March 27, 2015 Graphtec tech support would be the best place to go..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted March 27, 2015 All I can offer is the Graphtec FC7000 service manual. My cutter FC7000-MK2-75 has not been upgraded since 2008... and I won't http://www.graphteccorp.com/support/manuals/FC7000/FC7000-UM-251%20%2810-9370%29.pdf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexwoj 0 Posted March 27, 2015 Thank's Mz Skeeter, I'll start digging through the service manual. I should also note that when I tried to RESET the cutter, utilizing the "Power On Hold Up Button" method, nothing happened. Not to mention you need quite the wingspan to reach both buttons at the same time! Still holding out that someone on the forum is knowledgeable in this area...

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted March 27, 2015 We just had a guy who updated his firmware on his CE6000 and messed it up also.... He rolled his firmware update back.to older version... It was still not all the way back, so he had Graphtec send him an older firmware update via email... I would contact Graphtec tech support, They know more than we do...I would hope... They know those errors.... Perf cut program is in Cutting master 2 and 3 I thought.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
