Software
ML Operating Software
This software controls the console internal computer. The same software works with both the ML3000, ML4000 and ML5000 consoles and sidecars. Hardware links on the console cpu board automatically determine the console type. The software is loaded into the console through its RS232 port. Make sure you update both the console and any sidecars to run the same version.
ML Archiver
A Windows application that runs on a PC connected to your console. It lets you save the console settings and snapshot memories to a disk file. Use this to archive your settings as a backup or for future recall. The same software works with ML5000, ML4000 and ML3000.
