Hi Mario,

As I understand it the driver for both the dongle and the TX modules are part of the Giga-control package, and is down loaded to your PC when you install Giga-control. Attached is the manual on how to install the drivers. The instruction for installing the driver say to browse in the directory of Giga-control, but they do not name the file. If you have Giga-control installed, you should have the drivers. I managed to install them using this manual.

Hope this helps.

Cant help you there.. I have copies of firm ware back to 2.51 but not earlier.. I assume 2.33 uses quite different protocols and programming than the later versions as 2.33 is not compatible with newer versions.

The Rxs should load the earlier version of firmware, you will just need to have the right versions of Giga-control and update software. Fortunately Weatronics provides a Release History document which details all the different firm/soft ware versions, and what they are for and compatible with.

Probably not a bad idea to stay with 2.33 if it does everything you need..

Roger
