You can determine the current version of Firmware loaded on your Touch Panel either by checking the Panel
Information page on the panel itself, or by checking the Online Tree in NetLinx Studio, as described in the
following sections.

Determining the Current Panel Firmware Version (in NetLinx Studio)
Another way to determine the current version of Firmware loaded on your Touch Panel is to view the panel in
NetLinx Studio’s Online Tree:

In NetLinx Studio, open the

device tree for the NetLinx Master Controller. This tab displays a list of devices detected to be currently
online by the Master Controller (and the firmware version for each).
