How to Update the RMC-180 Firmware
PLEASE NOTE: The update requires a USB type A male to type A male cable. One was included in the box with your RMC-180. These are not commonly available in stores, so you may need to order a replacement online if it is missing.
Please see pages 15 to 17 of the manual for images to help guide you through the update:
PLEASE NOTE: The manual also covers updating the Bootloader firmware. If you are updating your RMC-180 from 1.3 or later to 2.202, your bootloader is already up to date.
If you currently have a firmware version older than 1.3, please contact us to help verify the Bootloader version and can send the correct update files.
