Updating RadiMation device drivers
RadiMation® uses device drivers to control equipment. Besides a RadiMation release and installation, a separate device driver installation package exists with a different version number. This DRIVERS.EXE is also included by the standard RadiMation installer, but it may be necessary to install a newer version of the DRIVERS.EXE on an already installed RadiMation® version.
You can find the latest device drivers on the Device Drivers Download page.
RadiMation device drivers, will be installed to a specific RadiMation version. For each RadiMation <version>, a separate folder is created containing the files for that RadiMation® version. RadiMation drivers are installed as a list of .DLL files that are placed in the RadiMation <version> installation folder. When installing device drivers to a specific version, its overwrites the older device driver files, and the selected RadiMation® version will from then on use the updated device drivers.
Any other RadiMation® version that is installed on the same PC will remain to use drivers that have previously been installed on that specific version.
Manual restore of the previous device drivers
During the device driver installation, a backup of the older drivers is made in the "<RadiMation installation <version>>\Backup\<date>\" folder. In case issues occur after updating device drivers. You may copy and overwrite all the device driver .DLL files from the "\Backup\<date>\" folder, to the RadiMation installation folder.
