@jmarcelino thanks for the Windows instructions and the driver package!

Ha sorry I see Windows needs a DFU driver! No problem, libUSBk to the rescue.

Try installing the driver package I generated:
[now old, see above]

or install libusbK and make your own using the inf-wizard :-)

Once that's done dfu-util -D pysense_0.0.2.dfu will work (remember you only have about 7 seconds to run it after releasing the button, so install the driver first)

DFU-UTIL has to be >= version 0.8
Tested with PyTrack not sure if the PySense uses the same ID, will try it up later.

dfu-util is also available for windows http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/

dfu-util-0.9-win64.zip

Should be really similar to use (from command line)

The pysense is recognised by my Windows 10 as Serial USB device.

However, when I plug it in with the button pressed it says unknown device, no driver available.

Hence the update fails

PS C:\Users\.....\Pycom\dfu-util-0.9-win64> .\dfu-util.exe -D .\pysense_0.0.2.dfu
dfu-util 0.9

Some additional tips to help MAC users:

1. After downloading the Pytrack/Pysense DFU, rename it to firmware_file.dfu
2. Move the DFU file to Library folder
3. Hold the push button and connect the Pytrack/sense ( no LoPY etc needed) over USB
4. release the button and paste the command : dfu-util -D firmware_file.dfu
5. Should be good to go!
