Thanks UK Sentinel. Hopefully that will be out of box firmware. Is there an automatic update that will kick once switched on. By the way what’s with the prices, yesterday £307 on Amazon, today £399! Last week, £307 pre order on Scan, today £409!
The auto update will update the FW to the latest, which is currently 43181. If you want to update to a specific firmware (i.e. 42095) then this would need to be done on each unit individually.
The out of box firmware for each of my orders and replacements were very early firmware from last year.
With regards prices, they are going back up on most sites. As UKSentinel mentioned it must be something to do with chip shortages.
You can also try Amazon Warehouse which is usually decently priced.
