The latest version of the AMBE 3000 Server is located here: http://ambeboard.zumradio.com/firmware/
That zip file contains the “zumambev1.3.bin” firmware as well as the program used to upload to the ESP32 chip on the board.
- Open Device Manger and observe what COM port shows up when the AMBE Server is plugged into the a USB port
- Copy the zumambev1.3.bin firmware and the esptool.exe programming tool to your user space (C:\Users\????? <==Whatever it is)
- Open a CMD window
- Type esptool.exe –chip esp32 –port COM3 –baud 921000 write_flash 0 zumambev1.3.bin (whatever the COM port should be, 3 in my case)
- Wait for it to finish, about 30 seconds in my case
This is the output you will see in the command window:
C:\Users\Bob>esptool.exe –chip esp32 –port COM3 –baud 921000 write_flash 0 zumambev1.3.bin
