Firmware Update Restore Prompt

[trhx]

I'd like to bounce something off of peeps here before posting to ideascale in case I'm missing something.

 

After a firmware update is done, presets, etc are automatically restored, but we're encouraged to reset the Helix and then restore the backup we created at the beginning. I'd like a prompt before the auto restore that would allow me to either skip the auto update if I plan to restore manually, or continue if I don't plan to do the factory reset yet.

 

Does that make sense?

A minor conceptual correction: the presets are not ‘automatically restored’; they were simply not deleted during the firmware update. They do, however, need to be rebuilt to ensure compatibility with the new firmware and they will be rebuilt automatically at the next system startup. So you can’t really skip what you call the auto update; it’s actually preset rebuilding and it’s necessary. You can interrupt and defer it (here’s where your prompt might be useful, but you don’t need it) by powering off the Helix at the point when the preset rebuilding starts. I do this because I know I will perform the factory reset and restore the backup file (except for the factory setlists). After that is complete I power down and restart the device to allow the preset rebuilding to happen only once, at a time of my choosing.
