| Tip | Reason | |-----|--------| | | If you later need to revert, you won’t have to hunt down the exact file again. | | Label your backups ( eeprom_YYYYMMDD_serial.bin ) | Makes it trivial to restore a specific configuration. | | Avoid “hot‑plug” while flashing | Removing the dongle mid‑write can brick the bootloader. | | Use a short USB cable | Long cables can introduce noise that triggers time‑outs. | | Run the loader from an elevated command prompt | Guarantees it can open the COM port and write the driver if needed. | | Periodically check the Kolimer repo | The community often adds bug‑fixes (e.g., for new Windows updates). | | Don’t flash a newer bootloader onto an older dongle (unless the vendor explicitly supports it) | The older hardware may lack the flash‑memory layout needed. |
