Upgrade your PROFILER via USB memory stick
OS version OS 7.3.2 needs to be installed first!
For this purpose OS 7.3.2 can be found on the Download Page at Older Software Versions:

Hi Yoda that worked as you said, now can i grab the latest version of rig manager and update through it, or is it better to update via USB,also is the latest firmware safe to use,or better to wait seeing its still in the beta stage ?

You can do it both ways - USB or RM. I personally prefer to update via USB. Latest available firmware (8.0.2) is NOT beta now!

Thanks vjelen, do i have to re-format the usb stick again ? or just add it like i did with the first update
