Red Rocket

Version Driver Firmware BoB Firmware Download
2014.1 1.4.36.0 1.1.17.3 1.1.3.0 link

Note

  • The Red Rocket card needs a PCI-E x16 slot with at least 8 data lanes (x8)
  • Compatibility : Red Rocket driver 1.4.36.0 appears to be compatible with our previous releases (2013.3)
  • The Red Rocket X has not been tested officially but we have a report that it works with this release. However, please note that Red have reported some image corruption issues with clips of resolution 3840 x 2160 and 4800 x 2700. If you test this card please do so at your own risk. Feedback would be welcome.

Installation

  • Follow the instructions given in the Red Rocket Installation Guide.
  • If you already have a Red Rocket card installed, you should use the Device Manager to UNINSTALL any current driver first and reboot afterwards
  • After installing the driver, make sure you power down the workstation completely (a reboot is not sufficient). Do the same after installing the board firmware

Determining Current Driver and Firmware Version

If your machine has a Red Rocket installed, the driver and firmware version is displayed on application startup in the CMD window that opens e.g.

...
RED SDK 4.6 (Build ... on XXXXXXXXX)
Red Rocket found. Driver 1.4.36.0. Firmware 1.1.17.3.
... 

You can also find the Red Rocket driver via the Device Manager :

  • Device Manager / Sound, video and game controllers
  • Red Rocket
  • Right-click / Properties
  • Driver Tab / Driver version
