PLEASE NOTE
- For firmware version 095441.2B RheoWin version 4.30.0015 or newer is needed.
- Updating the circulator firmware is only necessary when the current firmware version is 095441.2A (since that version is not compatible with RheoWin).
- Updating the circulator firmware should be done by qualified personal only!!


 PCxxx Firmware

The current firmware version for the PCxxx circulators is NOT compatible with RheoWin, a new compatible version will be available at the end of 2011.
