Hi Stephen, no problem.
The Toolkit app doesn’t seem to update the firmware on the pro to 3.25 any more so that’s no help. What you need to do is update it using an old version (v3.53) of the Bkool Simulator. If it is asking you to update it then you probably need to look at step 4 below - basically you have to trick the software into thinking it is the latest version so that it doesn’t update. Try following these steps and let me know if you get stuck…
- Uninstall the Bkool simulator software
- Download the old version from here:
- Windows: https://gofile.io/?c=rFDElj
- Mac: https://gofile.io/?c=aLQb37
- Install the software, but don’t run it yet!
- Find and open a file called version.dat
- In windows it is here C:\Program Files (x86)\Bkool Indoor\BkoolIndoor_Data\StreamingAssets
- On a mac it is here: Find the Bkool application in “Applications”, right-click to bring up the menu and select “Show package contents”, Navigate to: Contents > Resources > Data > StreamingAssets > version.dat
- Open the file in a text editor and edit it so that the number inside it is “5.14” (i.e. the latest version) instead of “3.53” (On the Mac I had to make a copy of the file, edit that, then delete the original and replace it with my new version - there may be a better way but I’m not used to working on Macs)
- Open the Bkool simulator and hopefully it won’t prompt you to update it since we’ve tricked it in to thinking it is the latest version
- Go to the Pair Devices section and find the Bkool trainer - hopefully you should see the option to enable Ant+ FE-C mode, click this
- You might get a message to say that the update failed but this wasn’t actually true in my case - try loading up Zwift and hopefully it should appear as a controllable device
- Ride!
