K.3 UPGRADE FIRMWARE
This tool can be used to reprogram the firmware of an electronic board. It mainly concerns the Absolute
Arm, Extension Pack (FP / CP), or even the RSx.
The electronic boards firmware should always be up-to-date, as a new version is always compatible with
old boards.
For the RSx scanner, a valid Activation code must be entered in RDS Control Panel. Please
contact your Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence representative.
Check the latest version with your local Hexagon Manufacturing
Intelligence Service Centre.
This tool needs a USB connection and arm plugged on power supply. Wi-Fi connection and
battery-power not supported.
