Detekt offers a subscription service that allows updating of the
software and test database files. If you are interested in this advanced
feature, please contact Detekt.
1. Copy the zipped RDS-2500_X.X.XXX.tgz software update file or the
RDStinfo_YY_MM_DD.json database file into the root folder of a flash
drive. DO NOT unzip the .tgz file.
3. Insert the flash drive into the micro USB port on the right side of the
reader (the standard to micro USB converter is included in your box).
Note: You can only update one of the files at a time. To update both
the software and test database, you will need to repeat these steps
for the second update.
