software updates
IMPORTANT:
Updating the RC M firmware
Before powering on your device for the first
time, we will be preparing to update the
firmware on the RC M CPU and the ALP CPU
(if present). Updating the firmware is man-
datory before use.
The firmware update process is similar for
both control units - we will be downloading
firmware files from a website, placing them
on a USB flash drive, and then plugging them
into the control units. Once powered on,
the control units will recognize the firmware
files are present and automatically begin
updating.
Click “upload and verify” and a box will
pop up offering two download options
- “Download all in one ZIP archive,” or
“Download files individually.”
Click on the blue download icon next
to the “Download all in one ZIP archive”
text to download your firmware update.
When the download is complete, unzip
all files in the archive to the USB Flash
Drive.
Remove the flash drive from your com-
puter and plug it into the RC M CPU’s
USB port.
Power on the RC M system while the
USB flash drive is still plugged in. The
RC M will automatically recognize the
software update file and begin the
update process. You will see several
status messages on the screen as the
unit cycles through updating the various
modules (display, front antenna, rear an-
tenna, etc). Once the firmware update
is complete, the unit will reboot.
Manually power the RC M off and back
on. Once the RC M boots back up, the
update process is complete.

Take the included USB flash drive and
plug it into a computer. Either Mac or
PC is fine.
Point your browser to
www.radenso.
com/pages/firmware.
In the center of the page, you will see
text that says “Or click here for man-
ual serial number input.” Click on the
text”here” to go to the serial number
entry page.
Enter the serial number of the RC M
CPU into the “serial number” box. The
serial number is just the last five digits
of the sticker on the back of the CPU.
For example, if the sticker reads “RR007
63148” than the correct numbers to
enter are, “63148”
For the drop-down boxes that say “front
radar” and “rear radar” select HDM+ for
the front, and do the same for rear if a
rear antenna is present.
