A firmware file will be downloaded to
your computer. Move this file onto the
USB flash drive. The flash drive should
now have two files on it; the config file
as well as the firmware file.
Remove the flash drive from your com-
puter and plug it into the AL Priority
CPU unit’s USB port. Make sure the RC
M and ALP are both powered off when
you plug it in.
Turn on the RC M system and wait sever-
al seconds. The RC M will automatically
recognize that the ALP has the firmware
update flash drive plugged in, and the
CPU will begin updating.
Once the ALP has finished updating, the
RC M display will give you a message
indicating that the process has finished.
Remove the flash drive from the ALP
control unit and manually power off the
RC M system.
Power the RC M system back on and the
process is complete.
