Many VEX EXP products contain their own internal processors and run on a special Operating System known as "VEXos". This Operating System is written entirely by VEX Robotics, and harnesses the flexibility and power of VEX hardware for the diverse needs of education and the rigors of competition.
VEXos allows for advanced programming features and an enhanced user experience. The best way to ensure that your EXP system is functioning properly is to keep the firmware up to date. This is done simply by opening VEXcode, then plugging your EXP Robot Brain into your computer and following the prompts. The Brain will then automatically push out the latest updates to any V5 device that is connected to it.
