# Updating Robot/Sensor Configurations

With the introduction of singular cortex devices, we have released the Extend Robotics [Command Console](https://console.extendrobotics.com/), a web interface connected to your cortex device as well as the Robots and Sensors. It has built-in functionality for updating the robot and sensor configurations and settings.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For hardware delivered with version 9.3 or earlier, you must contact <support@extendrobotics.com> so we can set up your Command Console account, allowing for seamless configuration updates.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

This page consists of two sections which can aid you in updating your robot and sensor setup:&#x20;

1\. [#add-new-or-edit-the-setup-of-robots-and-sensors](#add-new-or-edit-the-setup-of-robots-and-sensors "mention")\
2\. [#load-a-previous-setup-onto-your-device](#load-a-previous-setup-onto-your-device "mention")

7\. After updating the configurations, you can select whether to reboot your device. The Cortex device must be rebooted for the new robot to load. You can Download your Configurations if your Cortex device is offline or Apply them directly if the device is connected to the internet.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you select Download Configs, within the ZIP file, there will be a `README.md` file containing instructions on completing the process for an offline Cortex device. The following steps are for when you apply Configurations to an internet-connected Cortex device.
