Failed firmware update & how to fix?

So after spending the last 24h trying to work out why my ESS is not working, I have come to the conclusion that the firmware update filed. Does any one have a guide on ho to start again with a firm ware update? I did find one guide but it requires me to download my VE config file and load it into the VE Bus System configurator which doesn't work as the file types are not correct for VE Bus System config.

@Jason

How do you want to do the update on the inverter? I am assuming you have a VEbus device here.

Over vrm or locally with an Mk3.

Over VRM. I have been using VRM for everything, it keeps the physical install tidy.

@Jason

The manual for the inverter update over the vrm is here.

What part failed? The firmware update or the config file upload?

I think the config file upload as there system is not operating any different after config upload.
