How to update your controller software
Pearpoint may issue P340 system software updates to enhance system performance. To find out if
Pearpoint has released a new software update, please visit www.radiodetection.com or contact your local
Pearpoint representative. It is highly recommended that you periodically check for new software releases
and update your controller when software is made available.

Radiodetection recommends using the mains adaptor for software upgrades. This is to ensure a
reliable power source.
