 Xeno is not currently mac compatible as mac will create random meta data files and ghost folders that interrupts with the sabers functionality this was recently discovered during troubleshooting where the saber will skip fonts or act as if extra fonts are present but would not make sounds.

CURRENTLY WE RECOMMEND USING PC ONLY FOR CHANGES  or IF USING MAC DOWNLOAD THE BELOW SOFTWARE CALLED BLUE HARVEST

Instructions.
 

Prior to updating, remove your config file from your "Set" folder. You may wish to go through the individual fonts at that time as well, and remove the 'config' file there. These will populate again from the main config.ini file, once the update is complete and you've added the new config.ini from the folder included in this update.  

 There are many new settings, so we suggest using the new config.ini included here. You can copy colors from your old config.ini to put in the new one prior to putting the new config.ini on the SD card.   

To update your XenoPixel firmware, copy and replace the "update.bin" file in your "Set" folder on your XenoPixel V2 micro SD card, to be replaced with the "update.bin" file in this .zip file. 

The update.bin file will begin the installation once you have reinserted the battery. You will receive a sound notification indicating that the update has started, and another sound when it is successful.   

Once completed, remove the battery and micro SD card, and access the card once again. copy and replace all files from the "Set" folder on your card, with the files in the firmware's "Set" folder. Copy and replace any other folders in the update, such as font folders.  

We STRONGLY recommend backing up your config.ini in another location, as this will reset your original settings to the Xenopixel default settings. In cases where you are replacing a font folder as well (for example, the firmware has an update in a folder labeled "3"), be sure to do your update first, then delete the "config" file located in the font folder. 

After you have done this, you can copy the updated files from your firmware update font folder. Make sure you have completed all the above steps before turning on the saber; any step missed will result in mismatched settings and possible issues.  

PLEASE NOTE: Any change you make to the settings on the config.ini that apply to a particular font, will require you to delete the "config" file in the font folder first. Failure to do so will result in your settings not changing.

BOARD capabilities
- multiple fonts max ive added 40 fonts can go more
- pixel only capable
- purple color pcb board
- capable 2- 3 watt 4 ohm Speakers
- recommended 18650 3.7 - 4.2v 10-15A battery
- pixel strips
- gesture controls
- music capable
- force capable

Preprogramed Blade styles via functions
- stable
- unstable

- blaster blade
- ghost blade
- candy rainbow blade
- + 5 Additional custom Erratic blades (un-named yet)

New Features added firmware DD02 at darkwolfsabers.com support section

- crossguard side blade delay ignition capable
- clash sensitivity adjustment (recommended sweet point 1.5)
- channel volume adjustment
- mixed volume adjustment
- stab activation on/off
- twist activation on/off

- swing power on/ off
- swing sensitivity adjustment
- now capable of font main color customization
 * example using formula RGB (0-255) as follows  RED = (255,0,0)  if GREEN = (0,255,0) 

So if font 1 is  blue blade  config shows as follows
Color - 1=(0,0,255)

If making custom colors  font 2 would be
Color - 1=(0,0,255)
Color - 2=(10,2 240)
Etc.. 

# 0 being less brightness and #255 being max u can make some cool shades of colors not yet seen.

With firmware ability we will continue to add more and more features and adjustments ahead.
