High fives to you Jerry! I just updated thanks to your video. Hope it works. ;-)

[@miningmonkey760]

Awesome pippadawson!

I could follow this and it was working for me until the bit where the legend is meant to say UP on the screen… nothing happens, no long matter how long I hold it down. My screen just stays dead. Any ideas? Am I meant to switch on the legend at some point?

[@miningmonkey760]

Lucy sorry about the delay been on medical leave, when your USB cable is plugged into the legend port pressing the and holding the up button is all that is needed, the machine "MUST" be off before pressing Up which my the means Update,that should automatically trigger the power to come one and update it but you have to follow the other procedures as well to complete it

Nokta Legend refuses to update V.1.15. the update program goes as far as trying to connect, and the program stays there looking for a connection, and does not move forward. Should the installer ask to download the drivers? The program doesn't ask me at any point. I've tried installing the drivers from the download file separately, but it doesn't help. I have Windows 10

[@miningmonkey760]

So for starters what is your current version? To identify what version you have,the detector needs to be off, then turn it on and look at top right of LCD screen and you'll see the version. We are seeing machines that are at 1.05 and 1.06 that the new updates don't work and stays stuck just as you are describing. I helped out a KZbin member get his resolved but we had to get nokta support involved , he had to ship the unit to the authorized repair center in the US and they replaced the board for him and shipped it back with the latest version,you more than likely are at that point. I would reach out to nokta support and use that channel to get your machine fixed. Copy and paste this link to reach out to the US service center for nokta,tell them your problem in the description www.noktadetectors.com/usa-technical-service-form/

[@ihis81]

I have now V1.11

[@miningmonkey760]

@@ihis81 with the latest update tool from nokta ,it's a pretty straightforward update. If I was in your shoes, I would do the following: 1) go to control panel in windows. 2) go to programs and features. 3) uninstall a program 4) remove all traces of nokta makro app in using any drivers from previous. 4)once removed,reboot PC. 5) go to windows firewall or Windows defender and turn off. 6) disable all and any antivirus program. 7) download the latest from nokta makro site 8) right click and extract the folder and run the update tool and follow the prompts from there. You shouldn't have any issues following these steps,if you do there's probably an issue elsewhere. Check the end of the cable you are connecting to the detector and make sure the pins aren't bent. Let me know what happens

[@ihis81]

I've tried everything you mentioned except turning off windows defender. I will try it tomorrow

[@ihis81]

Btw...Should the update program install that app on the computer? when I extract the files and run that program, it opens that program, but that program is not installed on the computer, the file just opens the program. When I close the update program, it is no longer installed on the computer. I always have to open that program from the extracted files. At least I can't find that application when I look for installed programs in Windows. A really strange program because it doesn't make a shortcut on the desktop

[@markmaynard6551]

Windows 11 not recognizing the USB plug on my cable to the charge/update port... tried on 2 separate computers - hence not able to install the UART bridge to update to 1.11. Does anyone have a workaround ? Thanks !!

[@miningmonkey760]

Uninstall the update and program and reinstall it and see what happens after that mark

[@user-jf3ep4z104]

why it say while not conected my detector on pc and i click drivers i have a promp and than close screen and says after the driver software installed disconect and reconnect the usb cable hel pleas why it tel me that

[@miningmonkey760]

Sorry I don't understand the question,if you are having problems email nokta support

[@user-jf3ep4z104]

i wil know or this is normal if you not conect the legend and scroll in the menu from the tool​@@miningmonkey760

[@user-jf3ep4z104]

sorry.but translate this in netherlands what i say my friend. als ik de metaaldetector niet heb aangesloten ik heb hem ook nog niet en moet het progamma nog downloaden maar als ik door het menu gaat waar je die update moet doen krijg ik te zien hoe je het moet uitvoeren dan staat er instal drivers waneer ik daar op klik zonder de legend gekoppeld word ik verwijst naar after the driver software is installed disconected and reconect the usb cable is dit normaal dat die je naar dit verwijst en de drivers nog niet instaleer maar dat als je pas echt de detector aangesloten heb en je klikt op install driver dat die dan wel de drivers instaleerd met anderen worden of die dit niet zal doen zonder detector

[@spdetectors7091]

It's not downloading on my comp?!

[@strawbs63]

thanks

[@miningmonkey760]

No problem straw

[@digginggopher]

[@HighDollarHobo]

I was going To say b4 you shut down the machine right after updating it should have been restored to factory defaults. Oh well I'm sure it's fine. But they've been saying it's important to do that since 1.07 because otherwise it gets screwy.. I'm still on 1.07 really excited to update to 1.11 need to be ready for when the snow melts!! Thanks Jerry!! Check out my coin art if you get a chance I've been uploading videos. Take care happy hunting :)

[@miningmonkey760]

What's up hdhobo!

[@cowboygeologist7772]

Thanks. NO-k-ta is pronounced with a long O, just like the O in Makro. Not Knock-ta.

[@meals24u]

Haha who actually cares… It’s an English speaking person pronouncing a non English word. Nockta, Nokta, potato, manzana, *in a world that’s falling apart, we need more ppl like you that won’t let a pronunciation mistake like this slip!*

[@miningmonkey760]

I have no problem with that but but Dilek Gonulay VP Of Nokta Makro pronounces is short O,not long O😉

[@cowboygeologist7772]

@miningmonkey760 most of the time she doesn't. She isn't consistent. I'm sure the owner brothers have noticed. Knock-ta started as a slur from competition saying they were just a Knock Off. I'm not sure how much Turkish you know but having lived there, I can tell you it's NO-k-ta.

[@chriswhitey1978]

You made this way too complicated lol Took me 60 sec last night

[@miningmonkey760]

Then you didn't need this video🤣
