    You don’t need to (and should not) connect the chromebook directly to the Apex. Use a web browser as you normally do to access Apex Fusion. Go to the Modules page, select the EB832, then select Update Firmware.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    You have to use a computer with a mouse to do so only on classic, lite, and Jr models from the local dashboard. On the 2016, you can do it from either the local webpages or fusion remotely or locally as Russ said.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
