SRL2 firmware updates after Rosetta 2 is discontinued — Apple Silicon version of Device Manager?
Hi all,
I have a MacBook Air M3 (Apple Silicon) and an SRL2 headset, and I'm trying to plan ahead for an issue I expect to hit in the next year or so.
The SRL2 doesn't support OTA firmware updates — firmware has to be pushed via USB using the Sena Device Manager on a computer. As far as I can tell, this tool is an Intel-only build, which currently runs on my M3 Mac via Rosetta 2.
Apple has confirmed that Rosetta 2 will be fully supported through macOS 27 (fall 2026), but will be largely discontinued starting with macOS 28 (fall 2027), with only a narrow exception kept for old, unmaintained games. The Sena Device Manager won't fall under that exception, so once I'm on macOS 28, I won't be able to run it on my Mac anymore — and since the SRL2 has no OTA path, that means no way to update firmware at all on Apple Silicon.
A few questions for Sena:
- Is there a native Apple Silicon (arm64/Universal) build of the Sena Device Manager planned, and if so, what's the timeline?
- If not, is OTA firmware support being added to the SRL2 (e.g., via the Sena Motorcycles app) as an alternative?
- For those of us who'll be stuck without Rosetta 2, what's the recommended path to keep firmware current — a Windows-only tool going forward, or something else?
I'd rather plan for this now than find out the hard way in late 2027 that I can't update a device I paid good money for. Would appreciate an official response or roadmap update from Sena on this.
Thanks!
