Important

If your TimoTwo firmware is earlier than v1.0.5.1 the update-over-usb will not work.  You will need to update over Bluetooth using the CRMX Toolbox App first. Then any subsequent updates can be done over USB.

  1. First, download the latest TimoTwo Firmware named QS_TT_FW_X.X.X.X.cci from our downloads page >Here<. (If you download the .cci file from Lumenradio' website you must rename the file to the QS_TT_FW naming scheme)s

  2. Copy the file onto USB-C thumb drive that is formatted as MS-DOS FAT32.

  3. The light must be powered on and in Manual Mode (not actively receiving Data), then insert your USB-C Drive.

  4. The light will automatically detect the TimoTwo firmware on the thumb drive

  5. You will see a 5-second countdown timer then the update will proceed automatically. This allows for automated updates of many-lights-at-a-time with no additional button presses required.
