The Robot Controller connects to a REV Robotics Expansion Hub using a USB connection. The purpose of the Expansion Hub is to facilitate communication between the Robot Controller and the motors, servos, and sensors of the robot. Periodically, REV Robotics will release new versions of the firmware which contains fixes and improvements for the Expansion Hub. The firmware releases are in the form of a binary (".bin") file.

You can use the _Manage_ interface to upload the firmware file to the Robot Controller. You can then use a Driver Station that is connected to the Robot Controller to initiate the firmware update. New firmware images can be obtained from the [REV Robotics website](http://www.revrobotics.com/software/). The [REV Hardware Client](https://docs.revrobotics.com/rev-control-system/managing-the-control-system/rev-hardware-client) software can update the Expansion Hub firmware.
