EV Charger firmware update failed 518

I have problem uploading firmware to EVCS. I am trying to use firmware file "EVCS_Main_FW_OTA_V01.25_C025.evcsup" but it always fails.

I tried to reset to factory, nothing helped. current version 3.3/1.22

Is the system online and added to the VRM Portal?

If yes, try the update using the VRM Portal.

Yes, it is added to VRM Portal, but I cannot find how to update it? I can see it in Portal > Device list, but there is no way to Update it. Please can You help me?

There is a button "Firmware Update" (you might need to activate two-way communication in the settings of the GX device)

Can you tell me the VRM portal ID? I can try from my side. Make sure the Wi-Fi signal is strong enough. If the communication is unstable, that will be the outcome.

Hi @Lucian Popescu (Victron Energy Staff) ,

thanks, You sucesfully update it to version 1.26-beta-2/4.3, I had connected to my WiFi and set it up. Unfortunatelly Cerbo sees EV charges double names.. I have two chargers, one ends with IP 192.168.15.202 (EVCS-VRATA), and second one IP 192.168.15.203 (EVCS-ROZVADEC). But in Cerbo (192.168.15.201) is only name EVCS-ROZVADEC but twice..

I had probably interrupted Your work, so I am sorry for that..

snimek-obrazovky-2023-07-22-v211658.jpgHello, I have the same problem with EV Charger:

An error occurred during the update process. Please try again later!

Error Message: device-update: Connection error Error: 733

I tried update it through VRM and web page too. Restarted Cerbo but got same error. My VRM portal ID 48e7da887a07.

Can you please look at it?

Hello @Lucian Popescu (Victron Energy Staff)

I am having a similar issue although not code 5.18.

This unit has firmware v1.22. When attempting update to 1.28 via browser and direct WiFi connection, the update fails at around 6 to 8% progress. When trying to update via VRM we get message Error 733 Connection Error and another box 1512 You dont have sufficient rights to perform this action. I have tried many times.

Can you please take a look? VRM 780473a9bcbb

Thank you, Owen.

It seems the EVCS is disconnected from the network, can you check please? Also, the Internet connection on your GX is very bad, it's pretty hard to do anything, but I will try

Hi, it tried but the connection between GX and EVCS is very unstable, probably that's why firmware update is not working.

Below picture with a ping test between GX and EVCS, 60% lossimage-3.png

If you manage to improve the connection, and it is still not working, contact me.
