Windows 95, NT4.0, 2000 Installation
There is no Windows 95, Windows NT4, or Windows 2000 support for the CH Pro Throttle
USB. Check our website periodically for any new software updates.
Macintosh Installation
Since the Pro Throttle USB is a USB device it will work with a Macintosh. However, the
mode switch function will not work. Therefore, the Pro Throttle USB will only have 19
functions and one point of view feature on a Macintosh. Check our website periodically for
software updates and/or information concerning MacOS updates.
