Re: Do we have to update firmware?
Emily,

Your team should start by following the step by step instructions outlined in Chapter 1 here. This "acceptance test" requires the factory software. Please do this before you attempt any software upgrades.

As you proceed, you will very likely encounter problems. Have a team member search these fori to help you solve your issues. With over 1800 teams all using a new control system, I can almost guarantee that any issue you may have has already been experienced by others.

Regards,

Mike
