Protocol support
Some features of the library may have their own Firmware version requirements. The documentation for a class, method, property or parameter will mention when a later Firmware version is required.
ASCII Protocol
Firmware 6.14 is the minimum requirement to be able to use this libary with the Zaber ASCII protocol. Earlier Firmware versions are not supported.
Binary Protocol
Firmware 5.0 is the minimum requirement to be able to identify devices using the Zaber Binary protocol.
It may be possible to control devices with earlier Firmware versions without identifying them but we do not guarantee it.
