Here's the links to the updated firmware for your board.

Make sure you do this individually for each half, as just doing one half is not sufficient and flashing does not transfer over the cable connecting the two halves.
Now that you've updated the firmware, if you want your encoders to show up for remapping, click on Layouts

To edit the mapping of the encoder, click on it, and the bottom half of the window will show the mappings for clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation, as well as pressing the encoder (if the encoder can be pressed).
First you will need to clear the EEPROM on each half of the board. Here's the prodcedure for that:
After clearing the EEPROM, go ahead and flash each half with the new firmware file you've downloaded:
