which COM-port disappeared from the menu or you could go windows ->Control
panel-> System-> Hardware -> Device manager-> Ports (COM&LPT) as shown in
picture 4. If computer gives a very high com-port number for you then you may have
the change it manually to some lower because VAMPSET doesn’t support COM-port
numbers above 25. Changing COM-port number is shown in picture 5.
- There is special RS-232 serial cable between PC and relay: VX-003. (connection

2. The major version number is different. For example V6.21 file cannot be sent to
device, which has V10.55 firmware, because the major version numbers are different
(6<-->10). Version number can be checked from the DEVICE INFO view.
3. The minor version number of the file is greater than the version on device. For
example V6.46 file cannot be sent to device, which has V6.21 firmware, because the
minor version of the file is greater (46 > 21).
