When you compile the code, it creates a .hex file.

1. Open IFI loader and click the browse button and select the .hex file you compiled.
2. Connect your computer's serial port to the programming port on the robot controller.
3. Press the program button on the robot controller.
4. Press download on the IFI loader. (It takes a few moments for the code to load).

Just a note, hold the program button till the program LED on the RC turns orange, then download.
