Latest Information regarding the newest update for CS2 from Märklin, not launched yet!

The new update to Version 3.6.0 for the 60213 to 60215 Central Stations will be available
shortly. This new software version represents an important step with regard to future
updates. We therefore want to inform you in the following newsletter about these
implications.

One of the characteristics most appreciated by our customers about the current generation
of Central Stations is the constant stream of updates being offered that can be used to
install supplements and additional possibilities into the Central Stations. In the past, these
updates went out to the customers without explanations and without possibilities explained
for impact on the operation of trains. The new behavior by the Central Station resulting
from these updates could lead to irritation on the part of the customers and malfunction of
the controller.

We have therefore decided to change completely the process for the update and to
combine it with a manageable menu guide. This new update 3.6.0 must be carried out so
that this type of update is capable of running in the future on the 60213 to 60215 Central
Station. The procedure for this differs from earlier procedures. We therefore request that
you do not engage in any experiments and that you adhere strictly to the following steps.

You need a USB stick for this update and it must have a memory capacity of 8 GB. For the sake of safety store existing important data on it and if necessary on a suitable device (example: personal computer).
Go to the Märklin Web page under
http://www.maerklin.de/d...ds/software_updates.html
and load the following files from the Web page into the main directoryon this USB stick:
cs2update.tgz

On the Marklin website explanations are for German speaking people only....Nothing in English, nothing in French, nor any other languages...
Is it so expensive for a Company like Marklin to have some service pages in the 3 most widely used languages of the western world: Spanish, English, French ?
Is it still possible to update directly , connecting the CS2 to our internet box ?

German text says 1 GB, not 8 GB.

The PDF is from this week (May 14) and says the update will be available soon. So just wait until 3.6 appears on their site.

In effect what Marklin are saying is that the version 3.6 update is too large to entrust the update to the normal 'over the web' update process, simply because everyone's internet download speeds differ, and an update of that size could easily be terminated due to network timeouts or other problems.

Hence the reason for the USB only update process (and yes, the document from Marklin says 1Gb not 8Gb).

I'm going to take "the wait and see" option. Wait for the new version to be released and see what the "experts" on this wonderful forum have to say. Then, when the dust has settled, I'll install the new update. LOL LOL LOL

I never understood the logic behind having updates available via internet but not readily through USB stick…

As far as I know the latest update is still not available with USB download…

I reckon most users do not have a permanent access from CS2 to internet

So I hope Marklin will continue this trend by primarily providing updates via USBThumpUp

So far mfx+ was not available for USB updates (neither 3.0.1 nor 3.5.6).

But 3.6.0 will be made available for USB updates.

Typically the online update comes weeks before the USB update. We will see how they handle it this time.

Hi,

I have just updated my CS2 to SW version 3.6.2(2). BigGrin
The update was done in several steps where the first step was to update to version 3.5.99(1?) which updated the CS2 menu with the new update method.
The updated required several reboots.

A new SW version for the MS2 was also included (2.3)

Best regards
Per

Me too and everything seems fineCool but after reading the instructions regarding using a USB stick and "The procedure for this differs from earlier procedures. We therefore request that you do not engage in any experiments and that you adhere strictly to the following steps".

I am left wondering, did I engage in some kind of experiment by not using the USB method?

Now it is on Märklin homepage to,,,

Free translation from German :

Network Update for CS2

The current software version of the online update is 3.6 ( with GFP 2.43)
The best way to provide your CS2 with an update , and attached to the CS2 directly to a network with Internet access
(for example, at the network output of the router) . When updating from the network is taken into account automatically
which files are already present on the CS2 due to previous updates. As a result, only the truly changed files are transferred.
This is faster and is gentler on the file system of CS2 as a USB update .

The latest updates for the CS2 can only be obtained via a network update. A USB update is not offered at the same time due to technical reasons .

Important: Please note that older versions of the software CS2 must be restarted after connecting to the network !
Once the CS2 has contacted the network ( indicated by a flashing yellow and green LED) , the update can be started.
Go to this "setup : CS2 : Program update " or "setup : CS2 : Update : Power "


The network update to 3.6 , it requires the update process at least 2 times a toast
• The 1.Update passes through relatively quickly. After this update the CS2 will restart . The software version remains 3.5.99
• Depending on the previous software version , it may be that the CS2 is rebooting . Please start the update process again afterwards .
• When 2.Update required for version 3.6 large file transfer only . Please follow the progress in the text window .
• The update process can take a considerable time to complete if the CS2 must create only on its internal memory space
• If the update abort because the connection is broken , please repeat the update.

It took approximately these times.

It doesn't help that the interim update screens of version 3.5.99 are in German, but I managed to find my way through it. Once you get to version 3.6.2 the screens are in English again.

The announced new features:
Update 3.6.x:
Model time can be represented.
Your own schedules can be generated.
Sound reproduction by means of external speakers.
Sounds can be played individually at the Central Station
Extensive possibilities for automating a model railroad layout.
Download to a USB port free of charge starting April 2014.

I think sounds already came with 3.5.6.

Hello!

Märklin made also available the USB version of that update...

http://maerklin.de/de/produkte/tools_downloads/software_updates.html

Until today, everyone had made the upgrade only over-the-net?

Any experiences by USB?

(I'm scheduling to do the upgrade on this weekend... and just wondering all possibilities... I can do it on both ways)

Hi!

Sadly the process didn't go well for me. I did the update through usb and I think I have corrupted my CS2. I have followed all the steps, but after the first stage, where it installs the temporary update all things went south. At first all is good, but the update process keeps stalling on "Spielewelt", it does not complete this part. I press "weiter", it continues to do the update, restarts but with the provisory update still on it (3.5.99). I am trying network update and the results apparently are still the same (connection suddenly broken on SpielWelt)...I can't revert to previous update and my CS2 is for all effect dead in the water and i can't press on to the new one. Never had problems updating...

Regards,

Miguel

Hello Miguel.

Do you have a personal backup to revert to a previous firmware(s)?

I read that you could (should) recover a previous firmware and reload it to a state prior to the actual one. Märklin have installed a factory default state on the CS2. Maybe if you reload it, reboot, and try the network update...

I had never take those steps... only read... but is good to know.

Thanks for reporting, and keep posting your experiences (good or bad).
Best wishes from here.

Cheers,

Walter

Hi there!

As a first step I did that but with no results, she continued with provisory update. After a long morning, i have managed to salvage my CS2. The update went down several times, and I had to resume it from the point it stoped. The system is now updated, but i will not update my system any time soonerUnsure. I don't know why the update crashed so many times, but i doubt it, that my connection is to blame. I have no problems at all with other downloads and web activities. What is beyond salvage is my MS2, at the time of the first update (still with usb) she was connected to cs2, and the firmware asked to be updated, I did that and soon after she died. She is completely dead now, no sign of life whatsoever. She is dead when connected to CS2 and still dead when connected to her box and power supply (she came with a starter set).
I guess i will contact my trainshop here in Portugal...

Regards

Miguel

Big fail here too...

After the USB update (after several fails with the online update...), it seems like I am at version 1.6.4(3) for some reason (was 3.5.6(16)) before trying the updates.... Cursing

Either way it makes no sense really. In my case the update started to fail through the usb method. And even with MS2 connected i think there should be no reason, for it to be "terminated". In the update process, the MS2 was detected normally and the firmware passed with no problems. As I remember, the thing that blacked out MS2, was when i checked the visa in a dialog box (on the CS2) regarding the firmware update of MS2. She instantly shutted down.

I also managed to update to v3.6.2 on my 60215 CS2 without any problems. Took about 15-20 minutes.

Hello.

I updated my CS2 60214 HW 4.33 from 3.5.6 to 3.6.2: IT was by Internet. IT took about 20 minutes and my CS2 failed to update from 3.5.99 to 3.6.2 one time.

I have also update the CS2 of a friend, from 3.5.6 to 3.6.2. It is the 60214 HW 3,4 . It took about 40 minutes to make the complete update and sometimes it seemed like the CS2 was frozen. It took about 15 minutes to update from 3.5.6 to 3.5.99 and 25 minutes the update to 3.6.2.

MS2 connected could be a problem if you accept the update for it I think. You force your CS to update another unit while she is updating herself, or not completely update. That could lead to some bugs to appear.....
Just my two cents

Same here ThumpUp . All went ok when I updated from Internet. My CS2 is 60214 and MS2 was connected to CS2 after the CS2 was first ready from the update.

That's strange then. I read nowhere that MS2 should not be connected to CS2 while the update is done. If this constitutes a problem, or could pose a problem it should be adressed, at least with a warning from M. Somehow I think it is poor programming, rather user negligence. The data was sent to MS2, and after i chose to update (button yes) from MS2. The processes should be queued and the update should only start at MS2 only after CS2 was completely updated, logically speaking. I think the problem was, that MS2 was updated when the provisory update on CS2 was still in effect.

Agreed, perhaps that was the problem, of course it should be a warning somewhere.
Did you contact Maerklin service?
