How to update

App first, then the hub.

  1. Update the FrightMaps app

    Install FrightMaps 5.2.6 or later from the App Store or Google Play. The hub update only appears in 5.2.6.

  2. Open your hub

    In FrightMaps, go to More → Haunter tools → FrightLink and open your hub. On the Firmware Update Available card, tap Update Now. You can also use Update firmware in the hub's ⋮ menu.

  3. Stay close until it says “Update verified”

    Keep your phone near the hub. The hub downloads the update, restarts and checks itself before the app shows Update verified, usually in about a minute. Your paired devices, actions, port settings and schedules stay exactly as they were.

  4. Then your Executioners

    On the hub page, tap ⋮ next to each Executioner and choose Update Firmware. Keep it powered until it finishes.

No Ghost update this time: Ghosts stay on 1.0.13.

What changed

Steadier, faster and right on time.

Hub 1.0.3.54 New

More room on older hubs

Hubs that were running short on storage get room back during the update. Every paired device, action, port setting and schedule comes through unchanged.

Waits run on time

A 1-second wait between actions now takes 1 second. On the old firmware it could stretch to about a second and a half, which threw off timed scenes.

Faster cloud control

Firing a prop from the Remote over the internet now lands in about a second. On the old firmware the first fire could take up to 10 seconds.

Steady through long nights

The hub keeps far more memory free while it's connected to the internet. In our testing it ran overnight, connected to the cloud with a phone attached, without a single restart.

Executioner 1.0.0.11 New

Version always shows

Executioners now report their firmware version every time they fire, so the app keeps showing which version each one runs instead of going blank.

FrightMaps app 5.2.6 New

Ready for hub 1.0.3.54

5.2.6 is the app version that offers and installs the new hub firmware.

Your time zone, set every time

Your venue's time zone is set reliably after you connect to your hub, so sleep windows and schedules follow local time.

Smoother on Android

The Android app does far less background work on the map and FrightLink screens, so taps respond right away.

Known issues

What we're still fixing.

  • One-time timers can look like they haven't run

    After a one-time timer fires, its row can keep showing as upcoming. The timer did run. You can delete the row.

  • The Last Event card can overstate an Executioner fire

    If an Executioner is unplugged or out of range, the hub page's Last Event card can still list it as fired. The Activity list shows the real result: “Prop controller didn't respond.”
