There is an official firmware update available for the Scooba 450. Most devices were shipped with firmware 1.2.3. Now you can update to 1.2.6 for free. Just download the updater-sw from irobot, and connect your scooba with a standard Micro-USB cable to your computer (The micro-USB jack is located behind a rubber cover under the handle). Double-click the Applications folder to locate and run iRobot Scooba Update. Select language. Turn Scooba on and connect it to the computer via micro USB to USB. The USB port is located under the handle. Note: Scooba may beep throughout the update process. I called in to iRobot, they escalated a firmware update request to next tier support. Update came next day. 1.6.6 and prior had some serious navigation issues, sometimes the bot would be dumb as a box of rocks when it got lost. 2.0.9 is a HUGE improvement in navigation, efficiency and handling differences in your environment vs. Call in and they'll get it pushed to your device. Damn, I just got i7+ today and on first initial startup it did firmware upgrade to 3.2.9. After the update finished I started first training run. After it completed the run and went to base station for charging I checked what settings the app has and it started upgrading the i7 again, and when it finished the firmware was 3.10.8. Updating the Scooba 400 series software (Windows 7 or greater). Ensure you have a micro USB to USB cable before beginning Scooba software update procedure. Right click My Computer (located on the desktop or in the start menu) and choose Properties.
