RCM Loader Tutorial | How can we use it on Nintendo Switch?

RCM loader is the cheapest modchips can work with SX OS, ReiNX, and Atmosphere  to donload and play switch games for free, here We have chosen to write a test that will explain at the same time the use of this small accessory handy for your console Switch custom firmware.

Presentation:

For the uninitiated, know that this product is a .bin file loader, that is, it will allow you to start your console in RCM mode and inject the payload needed to start your custom firmware. It comes with a gray plastic jig that clips on the back for perfect storage.

As you can see in the photo below, the kit consists of the RCM Loader, a plastic jig, a mini micro-usb cable to recharge the battery or change the payloads of the RCM Loader, as well as than a storage box.

 

Update the RCM Loader:

You can find the latest update on the manufacturer's website at: https://www.xkit.xyz/support/.

Once the file is downloaded, you have to extract its contents with software like Winrar. Inside you will find a folder called "IAP" that you simply copy to the root of your RCM Loader previously connected to the PC.



You will then simply disconnect your RCM Loader and reconnect it, the "IAP" folder will simply disappear and your RCM will be up to date.

 

Use:

Now let's go to the use of the product, first check that your RCM Loader has the battery by pressing 2 seconds on the + button, if a light comes on then it's ok, if it's not the case it will be necessary to reload it.

When you charge it, the led will blink white while charging and it will stay solid white when fully charged. (Namely that one hour of charging allows to boot about 1000 times the Switch and the charge is 3 months)

Payload level, the RCM Loader comes preprogrammed with the 3 main payloads, namely Atmosphere (blue light), SX OS (red light) and ReiNX (green light). To change the payload, you just have to press the + button for 4 seconds and you will see the light change color.

Of course you can change the payloads to update them, for it nothing easier, you just have to rename your payload payload.bin and copy it in the folder corresponding to your CFW.

Where this product is really interesting is that it allows you to add 3 custom payloads in USER1, USER2 and USER3 folders. Also be aware that you can rename the name of these folders to put the name of the payload concerned.

As you can see from the table below found on the manufacturer's website, the RCM Loader has 3 other light colors for custom Payloads.



To finish this test, the RCM Loader has a RESET button in case there is a problem, it is located next to the micro-usb socket (see photo below)




In conclusion, RCM Laoder is a very good product, which you will find at a very affordable price on the Flashcarda.com and we recommend it without hesitation as it is convenient and easy to use!
