	:The PICs ('''U6''','''U7''' & '''U8''') must be programmed with the ~~latest~~ firmware for the ~~Renard SS24~~ to operate ~~properly~~. The firmware ~~can be found on~~ the ~~[[Renard Firmware]] wiki page~~.		:The PICs ('''U6''','''U7''' & '''U8''') must be programmed with the correct firmware for the board to operate correctly. There are two types of firmware available: Operational and Diagnostic. The Operational firmware is what you need for normal board operation. The Diagnostic firmware is a troubleshooting aid to use when there are problems with the board.


			:'''Renard SS Operational Firmware:'''

			::*[[media:Renard SS Operational Firmware.asm \| Renard SS Operational Firmware.asm]] – source code that needs to be compiled


			:'''Renard SS Diagnostic Firmware:'''

			::*[[media:Renard SS Diagnostic Firmware.asm \| Renard SS Diagnostic Firmware.asm]] – source code that needs to be compiled

			:::Instructions for using the Renard SS Diagnostic Firmware are located on this [[Renard Diagnostic Firmware Instructions \| wiki page]] or can be downloaded in this [[media:Renard SS Diagnostic Firmware Instructions.pdf \| file]].


			:'''DMX Firmware:'''

			::Since there are many options available with the Renard DMX firmware it is impractical to post a dedicated Renard SS board version here. Users desiring to use DMX should get the firmware [[Renard Firmware \| here]].
