Hello All,

Does anyone know what BitWriter version is needed to program the 5301? I have one on the way that has 2.7, but I was seeing something about a CMOS upgrade too???

Thanks,

Travis

According to the manual, it only needs version 2.5 or better.  Hopefully if you ordered a 2.7 version, it has both chips upgraded.  I orded a 2.7 version recently and it was upgraded.

You say it needs version 2.7, its supposed to come with 2.7. Does it need any other hardware if it comes with 2.7?

Thanks,
Travis

there is the little square chip which is 2.7 but you need also the big green memory looking chip replaced also. it needs it for the newer remote starts and alarms.
