  • Are you trying to update your Sena Bluetooth device to only plug it in and see an error "failed to recognize device"?
    Spoiler alert! It's probably your cable.

    You have to make sure that it is a data cable and not just a charging cable for the older devices Micro-USB, for the newer USB-C. That was the problem for me.

    Thanks for helping me out!!! I used a standard USB-data cable. No brand on it. Worked perfectly. So no need to get the "special" SENA cable. By the way, it is is stated in manual that the chargercable does not work with updating. I just did not read that far yet... How tho update via that cable is still a mistery to me.

    My Outrush helmet never could connect to the software of SENA, It sends error USB [1][N]. I tried the original sena cable, the go-pro cable, the insta 360 cable, the samsung 10 phone cable, and another ten cables. I have tried USB C to USB A on a mini Mac with Monterey, tried a USB C y USB C in a MacBook Pro with Sonoma, tried a converter to USB A to C with the OEM USB cable. Also I change the privacy settings in both Mac to allow motoring Sena program. It reopen the program, also tried rebooting both MAC and reinstalling the software. I just Won't work, so I can't upgrade the firmware now. How ever I could set it up on Bluetooth for my Pan America and iPhone.

    Can confirm. 50s did not connect usong the usb cable they provide (which blows my mind wide open).
    As others have said, try a usb 2.0 slot instead of 3.0, try one in the back if the computer.
    For $300 sena should be ashamed if themselves

    Super Easy Fix! As soon as the Device Manager freezes, unplug the USB cable in the Sena, wait a second, then plug it back in.
    Boom, it finds the device!!
    Also, using USB 2.0 seems to be a lot more reliable!

    SENA 10S FAILURE TO RECOGNIZE
    Unplug the USB cable (mine so happens to be the OEM)
    Open the software
    Click “Next”
    Plug in device and LEAVE IT OFF!! (Important)
    Simply hold the phone button until something happens.
    I kept turning mine ON to get the lights blinking BUT that is WRONG no lights will pop up and LEAVE IT OFF.
