I just looked into C:\Program Files\Hercules\Audio\DJ Console Series\firmware to find a piece that would Mixxx allow to identify the firmware version.

I found a file named "HDJSeriesUpdater.exe" which seems to be able to update the RMX's firmware. But I see only this window for a split second: http://www.imagebanana.com/view/tatcxdz2/Clipboard.jpg. Nothing else happens. The *.msg-files in the folder contain error message texts in different languages. At the end of a *.msg-file there was a link: http://ts.hercules.com/faqs/eng/her_eng_00384.pdf. It's guide to upgrade the firmware. When you run "HDJSeriesUpdater.exe -manual" you get this http://www.imagebanana.com/view/vodvydkm/Clipboard.jpg and probably be able to upgrade the firmware (which was negated by a Hercules rep (see end of #887345)).

"RMX_TUSB.dja" seems to be the firmware file, but I cannot open it with a normal editor. Maybe this file would to determine the version for the above described scenario.

I don't know if upgrading the firmware on the old devices would be a good idea, but I would like to try it if we could get more info on it (from the Hercules Rep). Why does he say upgrading is not possible?
In my case in "Firmware Controller -> Current" says "4 (Etoms)" whereas in the manual it says "6 (Etoms)". So we need somebody with a fresh RMX console who gives us his "RMX_TUSB.dja".
