By default all Makelangelos are tested as 5s. The latest edition of Makelangelo Software includes an upgrade tool. It is located under File > Update firmware
Connect the USB cable to the robot on the left side of the motherboard. Turn on power. Click the ⟳ button to the right of port. A COM port should appear in the dropdown box. If it does not then the USB is not connected or the machine has no power.
Press HUGE. The application should take about 60 seconds to upload the firmware.
If it immediately says "finished", something has failed. Please contact us for more help. (OSX are known to have security issues here.)
After successful upload the LCD panel will probably say there is an EEPROM change. Turn the blue dial until the screen says [Reset]
Accept the change by pressing in on the blue dial.
Confirm the change has been applied. Click the dial, navigate to Configuration > Advanced Settings, and verify that Draw Min X is -683, Draw MinY is -1000, and Belt length is 2035.
