Charger's hardware / firmware version

[johnsonlam]

Hi,

How to check the hardware and firmware version?
I'm not sure my charger is V1 or V2, logically without LCD should be V1, can I determine by this?

Rgds,
Johnson.

You almost certainly have a V3 charger unless Paul sent it to you a while ago.

There are a couple of ways of telling:

V1 = No LCD and standard sized SD card slot underneath
V2 = LCD Charger
V3 = No LCD and micro SD card slot

If you start the charger with a memory card inserted, it will create a log file - the top line of that log file will give you the hardware version, software version and serial number of your charger.

Thank you very much for your information.

Here's what it says for my charger which was purchased and delivered from the Kickstarter project:
"Logging Started HW Version 3.01 FW Version 1.000 Compiled Jun 28 2015 Serial # 281"

Just note that the kickstarter shipping charger doesn't look like any of the pictures show in the UserGuide or QuickStartGuide nor the pictures on Kickstarter page itself. The shipping charger looks like that pictured here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=97#p656
