The StudioX software bundle includes the old MICROBEAST update tool which is now called "BEASTX Updater Classic". You can use this tool especially if you encounter problems when using the StudioX application and want to check if your device can be recognized or simply if you want to do a quick firmware update to one of your units or just because you did like to use this old tool. You can find the BEASTX Updater Classic in the BEASTX programm group in your Windows START menu.
The tool "BEASTX Updater Classic" can be used if you encounter problems with the StudioX application and want to check if your device can be recognized at all. Also you can use it to do a firmware update with a provided update file from the BEASTX service team if necessary. You can find the BEASTX Updater Classic here:<br />

The BEASTX device will not be powered from the USB2SYS-Interface! So the unit must be supplied with power from a different source
before(!) you connect it to the PC, e.g. simply switch on tx and rx as you would go flying (on electric helis take care of the motor!).

The cable from the interface goes into the Microbeast's '''[SYS]''' port. Watch out for correct polarity on both devices.<br />

If the COM-Port to which the USB2SYS-Interface has been assigned by windows is known, you can directly choose it from the list of available interfaces:
If the COM-Port to which the USB2SYS-Interface has been assigned by windows is known, you can directly choose it from the list of available interfaces. On macOS/Linux usually the port is called "cu.SLAB_USBtoUART" or "tty.SLAB_USBtoUART" (you can use either of them):
