<br />
My Z9X 8K is on firmware v1.1.47.  OTA reports I&#039;m on the latest version, but I&#039;d like to update to the current firmware which is believe is v1.3.05.<br />
<br />
Could someone provide the correct upgrade path or the full recovery image as ive read a jump from v1.1.47 to v1.3.05 is not not possible and may need to be done incrementally.  Is that correct?<br />
<br />
Any further help guidance will be most appreciated.  <br />

Many thanks,<br />
