Firmware Updates
Updating Circuit’s rmware is very simple. Novation is constantly rening the operating systems
for all its current products, so do make a point of checking the download website from time to
time for any Circuit updates.
Firmware updates can be found at www.novationmusic.com/downloads. Select Circuit from
the Find support for: dropdown list. If an update is available, connect Circuit to your
computer with the USB cable supplied, connect the AC power adaptor and turn Circuit on.
(Updating rmware while powering Circuit from batteries is not recommended.)
Click on the downloadable le, and as the new rmware downloads directly into your Circuit,
you will see pairs of green pads moving from left to right while a pattern of red pads rotates
around them. Circuit will automatically enter its normal operating state when the download is
complete.
Bootloader Mode
In the unlikely event of a problem with your Circuit, it may become necessary to enable
Bootloader Mode. This is strictly an “engineering mode”, and all normal unit functions become
inoperative. You should not use Bootloader Mode without instructions to do so from Novation’s
Technical Support team.
Bootloader Mode lets you check the version numbers of the currently installed rmware, and
also to update rmware (and factory Patches) should the Firmware Update procedure described
above not work correctly for any reason.
To enter Bootloader Mode:
1. Turn Circuit off
2. Hold down the Scales

buttons
3. Power Circuit on again
Circuit will now be in Bootloader Mode, and the grid display will look something like this:
