How do I replace the system memory chip?

The Nifty Brain is a smart piece of kit, but like all technology, it’s not 100% reliable. A quick restart usually fixes most issues, though in rare cases the memory chip may need replacing which is why you have landed here.

Nifty installs two types of hubs: a MINI and a MAX version. With your new memory chip in hand, please follow the steps below:

Replacement procedure:
  1. Power OFF the Nifty Brain by unplugging the USB cable from the side (see image below).
  2. Remove the currently installed memory chip (see image below).
  3. Insert the new memory chip.
  4. Power on the Nifty Brain by reconnecting the USB cable.
  5. Wait 10 minutes for the system to configure itself and come back online.
  6. If this does not work, repeat steps 1–5.
  7. If it still doesn’t work, please contact support by creating a ticket at the bottom of the following page:
