Customers who already have MassFS can upgrade to V1.00, and continue to receive support for their devices as before. Of course they too may add further devices to MassFS. Contact us for pricing.

New devices may be added to MassFS by modifying the "otherdevs" file as indicated. These may function in exactly the same way as directly supported devices, but will be given a special icon and will not yield a support key.Worked examples are included as part of the file of existing devices, following this through should let you add your own. We cannot enter into any discussion regarding adding your own devices.
