New software – Harvest Right Freeze Dryers
Please read through instructions before downloading the Version 6 Update.
It is important to note that this new software release only works on freeze dryers that are currently installed with software that begins with v5.4.or v5.5. On the home screen of the freeze dryer, there is a number that tells you which version of software you have. Once you have begun updating to version 6 you will be unable to revert to any prior version. Do not interrupt the update process once it has started.
IMPORTANT – Please read before updating software:
- Versions that begin with v5.0, v5.1, v5.2, v5.3, or lower are not eligible for the upgrade to version 6 or Wi-Fi.
- No support will be available to revert back to a previous version.
- Please do not share the software with other customers, direct them to this page to download. (harvestright.com/software-update-version-6)
- Please click here to download or read the most recent USER MANUAL
- If you attempt to update an incompatible freeze dryer to version 6, this will not harm your machine, the update will simply stay on your current version.
Software Upgrade Instructions:
- Follow the instructions above to verify the software you are currently using.
- Once you have downloaded the zip folder to your computer, open it by double clicking on it. Then copy all five files in the zipped folder onto the root of a 16GB thumb drive (not in a folder). The update will not finish without all five files present on the USB thumb drive.
- Turn off your freeze dryer.
- Insert the USB device with the Harvest Right files into the USB port on your freeze dryer while it is still turned off.
- Turn on your freeze dryer with the USB device still plugged in.
- The update progress instructions will display on the screen, do not turn off the freeze dryer or remove the USB drive unless the on-screen instructions indicate that a file is missing from the USB drive. If a file is missing, remove the USB drive, ensure all files are present, and repeat steps 1-5.
- This process may take up to 10-15 minutes to fully complete.
- Wait until you see the new home screen displayed.
- You may now remove the USB device. The installation is now complete, and your freeze dryer is ready to use the new software.
