Done RTI forever, but not recently.

Inherited a job with xp-3.

Do I have to be authorized to update it?
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.

When I did those, it was simply a matter of buying them and figuring out the programming. Can't see why you'd have to be authorized all this time later!
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

Topic line reads Procontrol but content reads xp-3 which is RTI. Update it? you mean update the xp-3 firmware? If so, that process hasn't changed much in forever with RTI - dealer site>firmwares>download.

Pro24.Z remote

XP3 processor

Does that tell you what you need?

If someone mated up a 24.Z to an XP-3 it means they used apex (not ID) to program it. Updating the FW on the XP is easy. But, you had better be proficient with apex. If not, pass on the project.

You don't have to be authorized to purchase the equipment. You do need to register on Pro Control's website to get access to the programming software, and purchase iPad/iPhone/Android licenses.

Pro Control will verify with your disty that you are a dealer.

In this case, this would be a waste of time. This is not a Procontrol consideration. It is using RTI apex only.
