Hey folks,

Looking for the most recent firmware for Firstech's Compustar Programmer FT-OP500. For end-users unable to register with the authorized reseller site this would be a big help. Otherwise, there's no way to update the programmer.

they currently have it locked behind firstech dealer login and have a dedicated program for it now so you dont have to use the old device manager method i can try to send the files but dont know if it will work

I'd give it a try. It's pretty disappointing to have a device that kinda-sorta works, but not to its potential.

Add them all to a ZIP file, then upload in the downloads section.

Thanks a lot for this upload. Worked.

Very disappointed in Compustar/Firstech putting this behind an effective paywall. If you own the kit, you should have access to the firmware.
