Flashed Gotek shows permanently "hxc"

Post by berlin76 »

I have two Goteks that I have flashed with HxC some time ago. One was just lying around to be used later and the other I have successfully used in a sampler. However, now wanted to use the Goteks in other samplers, and they always show just (hxc) in the display permanently.
Under which circumstances the display shows only "hxc"? Is there a way to find out what's the problem?

a config file is probably missing (or you are using the wrong one).

Check these instructions about the indexed mode, and if possible update your firmware :

Thanks! That helped. It was a messed up config file. Now I maybe know what happened, I was testing with the optional switch pins and that seemed to mess up my config file? Not sure if that was the reason. Now it works again,Thank you!
