Where can I find which driver is stored in which DLL?

Answer

In the version folder there is a file called DEVICES.DAT. This file is the link between RadiMation and the device driver system. The DEVICES.DAT file is a text based file so the contents of the file can be shown in Microsoft Notepad.

It contains all lines like:

MARCONI2017,MARCSG.DLL,Marconi,1,2017

Each line is encoded as a comma seperated line with the fields:

<Unique ID> , <DLL file> , <Manufacturer> , <Type of device> , <Device Identification>

so if we are looking for the Marconi 2017 we found it. The DLL File in which the device driver is located, is specified in the second column of the line (<DLL file>). The Marconi 2017 device driver is thus part of the MARCSG.DLL file.

{{Note|Search for the device ID but leave out the 'A' or 'B' in the end. For example: Hewlett Packard 11713A can also have a 'B' version, so searching for 11713 only will give you faster results.
