FIRMWARE UPDATES
-
Accessing Firmware Update
To access the firmware update for your ForeCaddy, you must download the Foresight App. This will run your firmware update over cellular or Wifi and update your Forecaddy device and remote.
-
Updating Version 1.5 Instructions
1. Open the Foresight App on a Smartphone:
- Make sure the app is updated to version 1.3.2 or later.
- Use this link to download the app if you don’t currently have it on your phone.
- The phone needs access to both Wifi & Cellular networks. It will use both during the download process.
2. Power On the Smart Cart & the Remote
- Ensure the cart is powered on. We recommend at least 3 lights on the battery so there is enough charge to complete the update.
- Power on the Remote. We also recommend connecting it to a power supply to ensure it remains on during the entire update process. If it disconnects, the update will fail. These two items should be close, within 5ft.
3. Scan QR Code:
- Use the Foresight Application or the camera on your phone/tablet to scan the code in the remote holder box. If connection fails, retry; connection may take up to a minute. The device will ask for permission to use the wifi connection, press “JOIN”.
4. Initiate Firmware Update:
- Once your Forecaddy 1.5 appears in your devices section, and it confirms there is a new firmware available to download. Press the “DOWNLOAD IT NOW” to begin the firmware update. A red light will appear on the cart and lights will flash on the remote. This process will take several minutes.
5. Wait for Update Completion:
- Once the device displays a blue light and the remote stops flashing, the cart has finished downloading the update from the cloud. The Foresight App will also confirm completion by showing a new button “INSTALL NOW” Press that and you will see the status bar showing the progress of the update.
6. Restart Cart:
- Once it shows as complete in the app, a new message reading “Restart Required” will appear. You can restart the cart by turning it off. This action will disconnect it from the app. You should also turn off the remote at this time.
7. Reconnect Device:
- Once the device is fully powered back on (this may take up to 2 minutes), select “RETRY” in the Foresight App. Note: Multiple retries may be required to reconnect, as the ForeCaddy systems may still be coming online.
8. Confirm Firmware Version:
- Once the device is connected, it will display a “Ready” message. This confirms that there are no firmware updates. You can also verify by hitting the 3 dots in the top right corner of the device screen in the app. Click on "Firmware Version" to confirm that the firmware version matches the newest version. That completes the update process.
