Hi,
I have problem with my PARD NV007 SN: SN: 20105 A115. But from the beginning:

I'v got one of the first PARD NV007 from aftermarket (without "A" - I know it now). All worked fine until yesterday. Just to need to upgrade firmware in it, i thought. This was bad idea. I found a firmware on original site of PARD but version was for NV007A. I knew it and just put soft on memory card. Then I thought, I have version 007A (the same shape, look etc). My PARD "ate" new firmware (green diode worked fine) but after reload - diode light green and screen was black. I don't know I made a brick, but i hope not.

I remember that last firmware was from 2019, i hope.

My kindly request is - need to proper firmware for my NV007.

Best regards M8's

At first - thanks a lot to Bruce (thx M8). His firmware file helped. But not at first shot...

PARD NV007A (SN:20105 A115)
Output software version - some from above 2019

Reached software from official PARD side (download section):

Software version downloaded:
Model name: NV007A
Release date: 2021/8/6

After uploading the *.zip content:
FWPARD7A.bin
LDPLD007.bin
to memory card 32GB (FAT32 formatted -better directly in unit NV007).
I inserted it into the device and turned it on. The green light started flashing in procedure system.
After a few seconds of light it stabilized. The screen on the device remained black the entire time. The disabled device has been reconnected.
The screen remains black but the LED turns green and stays on permanently. Device used on the "power" button. LCD still blank.

Got firmware form Bruce (thx again)
Unfortunately - no reaction for this firmware. Just ZERO. And then got idea to change name of the file on SD Card.
From vanilla: PLD1007 to previous (PARD source): FWPARD7A
"Press and hold the power button until the power on light starts to flash. The flashing power light indicates that the firmware is loading. Simply pressing and releasing the power button before the power light starts to flash will not load the firmware!
When the firmware has loaded, the power light should stop flashing and the PARD logo should briefly appear on the display, followed shortly by the display showing whatever the device is pointed at.
Go into the menu to check the firmware version and confirm that the version on the SD card has in fact been installed."
My firmware now is: PAD_20190423_R43.V1.28

First time for 2 days have saw a light :) Exactly and and figuratively. All works fine at this moment.
PARD 007 got new life.

ps: - sorry for bad English - I hope all is clear.
 
Excellent - well done and your English was first class sir. It’s just the contents that utterly mystify me!

Result, most end with a scrapped board and on NV008 models also, using incorrect firmware revision's...

After uploading the *.zip content:
FWPARD7A.bin
LDPLD007.bin
auf Speicherkarte 32 GB (FAT32 formatiert – besser direkt im Gerät NV007).
Ich habe es in das Gerät gesteckt und eingeschaltet. Im Prozedursystem begann das grüne Licht zu blinken.
Nach einigen Sekunden Licht stabilisierte es sich. Der Bildschirm des Geräts blieb die ganze Zeit schwarz. Das deaktivierte Gerät wurde wieder verbunden.
Der Bildschirm bleibt schwarz, aber die LED wird grün und leuchtet dauerhaft. Gerät wird über die „Power“-Taste bedient. LCD immer noch leer.

Habe Firmware von Bruce bekommen (nochmals danke)
Leider keine Reaktion auf diese Firmware. Einfach NULL. Und dann kam ich auf die Idee, den Namen der Datei auf der SD-Karte zu ändern.
Von Vanilla: PLD1007 zur vorherigen (PARD-Quelle): FWPARD7A
„Drücken und halten Sie den Netzschalter, bis die Betriebsanzeige zu blinken beginnt. Die blinkende Betriebsanzeige zeigt an, dass die Firmware geladen wird. Durch einfaches Drücken und Loslassen des Netzschalters, bevor die Betriebsanzeige zu blinken beginnt, wird die Firmware nicht geladen!
Wenn die Firmware geladen wurde, sollte die Betriebsanzeige aufhören zu blinken und das PARD-Logo sollte kurz auf dem Display erscheinen. Kurz darauf sollte auf dem Display das angezeigt werden, worauf das Gerät gerichtet ist.
Überprüfen Sie im Menü die Firmware-Version und bestätigen Sie, dass die Version, die auf der SD-Karte vorhanden ist, tatsächlich installiert wurde.“
Meine Firmware ist jetzt: PAD_20190423_R43.V1.28

Zum ersten Mal seit 2 Tagen ist mir ein Licht aufgegangen. :) Genau und im übertragenen Sinn. Im Moment funktioniert alles einwandfrei.
PARD 007 hat neues Leben bekommen.

PS: Entschuldigen Sie mein schlechtes Englisch – ich hoffe, alles ist klar.
