If you get this error in YARR even after flashing the firmware: 

[18:46:45:565][  info  ][  specComTest  ]: Init spec

[18:46:45:565][  info  ][    SpecCom    ]: Opening SPEC with id #0

[18:46:45:565][critical][    SpecCom    ]: Error during initilisation:  Open failed

[18:46:45:565][critical][    SpecCom    ]: Fatal Error! Aborting!

It is probably due to an issue with permissions. Just do: 

sudo chmod 666 /dev/spec0

or write a udev rules file for a more permanent solution:

echo 'KERNEL=="spec[0-9]*", MODE="666"' | sudo tee -a /etc/udev/rules.d/99-spec.rules
