Control System Firmware Updates
While every attempt is made to apply the latest firmware to the MKS 5000 control system before the
mount is shipped, Software Bisque may periodically release newer versions. The current motor firmware
version is listed on the bottom left of the Bisque TCS window.
Do not attempt to reinstall the same version of Paramount firmware unless specifically
instructed to do so by Software Bisque.
You must register your Paramount ME II, Paramount MX, Paramount MX+ or Paramount
MYT serial number to access to the MKS 5000 firmware updates. (Access to these
downloadable files will be denied otherwise.)
