NOTE: At this time, there are no firmware updates for the Redline Series (02/04/2017)
Firmware Update Procedure Redline series products are equipped with user upgradable firmware to accommodate future voicing and DSP updates. To update the firmware, please follow the instructions below.
Firmware Update on RL12/RL15
1. Disconnect the unit from AC supply and disconnect all analog audio cabling.
2. Remove the 12 mounting screws using a standard Phillips head screwdriver. Notice the top center screw indicated in the diagram, this is not a mounting screw, but a jacking screw location.
3. If the amplifier remains fixed to the loudspeaker after removing the 12 mounting screws, it is because the amplifier to loudspeaker gasket is binding them together. To free them, use the center jacking location to free the amplifier from the loudspeaker.
4. To do so replace the keeper screw from the center location with one of the mounting screws already removed.
5. Turn the mounting screw clockwise, pushing against the loudspeaker and forcing the amplifier’s corner out. If the amplifier remains fixed to the gasket it may be necessary to jack another corner away from the loudspeaker.
6. Once free, carefully lift the amplifier from the loudspeaker and disconnect the electrical leads at the coupling. Set the amplifier module aside.
7. Locate the Micro USB input port at the top of the amplifier and connect the user supplied micro cable to the amplifier.
8. Connect AC power to the amplifier module and follow the firmware update quick start guide. WARNING: Once AC power is applied to the amplifier module, avoid direct contact with the protective cage surround the amplifier.
9. When the firmware update is complete, disconnect AC power from the amplifier, disconnect the USB cable, then re-secure the amplifier module to the loudspeaker.
