The most up to date version of RFCSuite and also most up to date version of cube FW (firmware) can be found on support pages. Choose version of RFCSuite according your operating system (MAC, WINDOWS, LINUX), install it and lunch it on your computer. If you don’t have cube connected, you should see screen like this:

RFC_noconnect

  • Connect the cube with USB cable and shortly RFCSuite should display some usefull information like serial number SN, version of the software FW(SN) and the name of the main audio resources file (RES – resources):

If the cube does not communicate with the RFCSuite, something is wrong. You can try disconnect/connect USB cable, try different computer and so. However any time you can contact us with request for help.
