Flashing my RFXTRX

Hello All,
I am in desperate need to be able to have my RFXTRX firmware updated. I'm willing to pay shipping to anyone who may be willing to help me out? I'm hoping this upgrade in my firmware will allow me to control my rollertrol blinds. I should probably add that I'm located in the US in the state of Michigan. :)

You just need a windows computer or Virtual Machine..

RFXFlash info is located here:

Look for :

RFXFlash Programmer, and the firmware you want.

Thanks Korey. That's the problem though, I don't have access to a windows machine, real or virtual.

You can get virtualbox for free, and I seem to recall reading you can get Windows 10 free for a year or something like that?

Only if you're upgrading from 7 or 8.

Thank you for the tips guys! Turns out my father in law had an old window computer in his basement that was still connected to his network. I was able to download everything I needed and flash my RFXTRX with the latest firmware.

Re: Flashing my RFXTRX

Glad it's sorted. It is a bit of a pain there not being a Mac OS X updater for it.. i hope one will appear some day, but i doubt it. In the mean time i keep an old windows box i picked up from work around just in case i need it for this kind of thing.
