UTC and PDM Manager 1.5

Is anyone else have trouble using PDM Manager 1.5?

I have upgraded the UTC firmware to v1.13, and it still has comms issues; PDM Manager 1.4 still works fine, so I'm OK there.

Is there a later version of the firmware available perhaps?

Using PDM Manager 1.5 and the MoTeC UTC updated via the Firmware (v1.13) utility I downloaded from the web site, I can get the configuration from the PDM and save it without a problem.

When I try to send it back, I get a "Firmware version incompatible. Please update the firmware" error message.

The UTC is not giving you this error message, the PDM is. Before sending a configuration to the PDM with PDM Manager 1.5, the PDM's firmware needs to be version 1.5. When connected to the PDM, open PDM Manager 1.5 and go to "Online --> Update Firmware". This will update the PDM and you should be able to send the configuration.
