You can try this (a couple of times) :

Power cycle the keyboard 5 times. At the 5th time, the recovery screen should appear and you can re-update the controller.

In order to power cycle, turn on the device, wait 2-3 seconds and then turn it off again. Please repeat this 5 times.

If that helps then please do not attempt to update again until that you have attached a USB-C PSU capable of PD and also maybe have gotten a better cable , at least , there are a lot of discussions about such problems and what people recommend.

If that doesn't help then please contact hardware support : N.I. Hardware Support

Also if you get keyboard to respond again : ref. : Kontrol S-Series MK3: Troubleshooting Firmware Update Issues
