Chrissaf Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Windows only .... however it might be possible if your MAC has 'Parallels' Windows emulator on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinB Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Trouble with Windows emulators they don't always work that well with the comms ports, which is critical for the Elite update. Be interesting to find out if anyone has attempted it and had success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRG7 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Yes, have managed to use parallels to update Elite firmware using MacBook Pro in the past. It wasn't particularly straightforward, but got there eventually. Was a while ago, as I changed DCC system, which is more Apple friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
