Preset and software versions
A preset file created with a given version of System Engineer will be compatible with all
following versions.
Compatibility problems can happen if a preset file is opened with an older software
version that the one it was created with.
In order to avoid these problems, prefer using the manufacturer presets given with your
System Engineer version, and use only one System Engineer version at the same time.
In case you have several versions, please check your presets regularly.
You should also use the same firmware version on all your devices.
Please make sure your software, firmware and presets are up-to-date. You can find the
latest versions on the TECNARE website,
