Firmwareupdate
1. Open AxeOS
Open your web browser, type the IP address from the Bitaxe display into the address bar, and press Enter to access AxeOS.
2. Go to Settings
Click on "Settings" to access the settings. There you can check if a new firmware version is available and then directly download and install it.
3. Check for the latest version
Under Current Version, you'll see, for example, v2.6.1 – this is the currently installed firmware. Click Check to look for a newer version.
4. Download the latest firmware
After clicking "Check", AxeOS will inform you if a newer version is available, currently for example v2.15.2. The screenshot shows v2.7.0; the number increases with the monthly updates. Download the file esp-miner.bin and save it locally.
Since version 2.15 the web interface (AxeOS) is included in this file. There is no www.bin anymore.
5. Firmware Update
- Under Update Firmware, click +Browse.
- Select the downloaded esp-miner.bin (usually in your Downloads folder) and confirm.
- The firmware is flashed automatically. Wait about 60 seconds; the Bitaxe then restarts on its own.
Congratulations – your Bitaxe is now running on the latest firmware!
