2. Download SPLat reFlash

Download then run SPLat reFlash on your PC. This tool will upload the firmware to your SPLat controller. You will need a serial port or USB to serial adaptor and may also need a PC232 programming cable.

Windows 8.x Users

The first time you run reFlash, you will need to do so as the Administrator, otherwise you will see an error about HIRESTIMER.OCX not being registered. After you’ve done this once, you can run it normally in future.
