Title: Config Utility for Smart String Stuff...
Post by: chrisatpsu on March 09, 2016,
Is the current version of the Configuration utility able to be used on Zeus, SSC, DSC?


I have Zeus 16 v2
SSC v1 (converted to v3)
SSC v2 (converted to v3)
SSC v4
DSC (first version in case they changed)

What do I have to do to each item listed for it to work?

I believe you need to use a different version for each:

- Zeus has its own verson on the wiki, I always install it before programming a zeus v1 or v2

- SSC v2-modded-to-v3/v3 -- use SSC v3 wiki version (might also work with v1 modded to v3?)

- SSC v4 - use SSC v4 version (this appears to work with zeus ... but does not!)

It's a pain, but one you realize you need to correct version for each ... I always do an install/update before using each type.

I mostly use the v4 version and zeus version ... but if I need to reprogram a v3 (or modded v1 or v2) ... then I use that v3 version.

I've been using the same Utility (Version 4) for both V3 and V4. What are the differences between the version?

There might not be able for v3 vs v4 ... I almost never reprogram my v3 ... but I know the zeus version is different for some reason, looks basically the same
