Note:

The ECHO MINI is available in 8GB and 512MB versions. Since there are some functional differences between the two versions, the firmware also differs accordingly. The method to distinguish the firmware is as follows:

Firmware with "HIFIEC" in the filename is for the 8GB version.

Firmware with "MINI" in the filename is for the 512MB version.

If you copy the wrong firmware file, the upgrade interface will not appear when you try to update the device. Therefore, if this happens, please check whether the firmware filename is correct. If it is incorrect, simply re-copy the correct firmware file and try again.

注：

ECHO MINI存在8GB和512M版本，由于两个版本在功能上有些差异，所以固件也会有所不同，固件区分方法如下：

固件名称带“HIFIEC”的为8GB版本的固件；

固件名称带“MINI”的为512M版本的固件。

如出现固件拷贝错误的情况，固件升级时机器不会弹出升级界面进行升级，所以如果出现类似的情况，请检查固件名称是否正确，如有误，重新拷贝正确的固件即可。
