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 />

'''On Windows computers make sure that the driver files for your USB2SYS interface have been installed or install the files if necessary.''' For further information see this page: [[USB2SYS/SPMA3030 driver installation]].<br />

'''1. Connecting to the BEASTX device'''
<!--T:49-->
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!).
<!--T:6-->
The driver is inside the Disk-Image and must be installed manually.

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

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):

'''2. Detection of the BEASTX device'''
After you selected a COM-Port the BEASTXUpdater will automatically try to identify the unit connected to it.
