V-Auto Vinyl Cutter - Firmware Index

Inventory of firmware update packages from the local cncu.co.za mirror under T:\U\C\V-Auto-Vinyl-Cutting-Plotter\, mapped to live https://cncu.co.za/... URLs.
English prose only. No pricing. Firmware binaries themselves are not copied into this KB (pointer + URL only).

This pass fallback: FastCUT (T:\U\C\FastCUT-Fiber-Laser-Cutting-Machine) is thin (no Firmware/ / Firmwares/ tree; only CypOne software installer CypOne-V6.1.724.1.exe plus English CypOne User Manual V1.1). One-product rule: ingested V-Auto Vinyl Cutting Plotter instead.

What this firmware is

V-Auto vinyl cutters use a USB flash tool (update_fw_2.2.exe, older packages also ship update_fw_2.1.exe) with an update.dss payload (plus support DLLs: mfc100.dll, msvcr100.dll, STUARTBLLIB.dll). Packages live as version folders 004.32F and 004.33F (no ZIP twins).

Prefer 004.33F when support directs an update (newer wins: update.dss dated 2017-10-24 vs 2017-04-18 on 004.32F). Wrong-version flash risk - only when support directs. Support WhatsApp +27 60 600 7000.

There is no product-root Firmware/ or Firmwares/ directory (local absent; live 404). Use V-Auto Firmware Upgrade Software\.

Update summary: run update_fw_2.2.exe from the matching version folder (004.33F preferred) with the cutter connected as directed in the English how-to PDF. Do not mix 004.32F vs 004.33F payloads unless support directs.
