Manual Installation Steps

  • Once you have downloaded the RS Transmitter manual installer, complete the following steps

    1. Run the installer (eg RSTransmitterSetup1-0.exe)

    2. If you are prompted by Windows Smart Screen, verify the publisher is listed as Pocket Playground and then accept the application to continue installing.

    3. Follow the installation wizard and start RS Transmitter once the installation has completed.

    4. If you are prompted with a Windows Firewall warning, make sure that "Private networks, such as my home or work network" is ticked and then click [Allow Access]. It is very important that you perform this step, if you do not unblock the application it may not be able to receive the telemetry data on the network. Steps will be different if you are using a 3rd party firewall.

​

Important Note: RS Transmitter v2.2+ uses a newer version of the Microsoft VC runtimes compared to previous versions. Most users should not have any issues running the latest version, however if you are unable to run the latest RS Transmitter app due to missing msvcr dll file errors, you will just need to install the correct runtimes first. To install these, simply goto https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685 and click the [Download] button. Install both the x64 and x86 version if you are running 64 bit windows, or just the x86 version for 32 bit windows.
