Re: Error in lastest firmware for GNX modules with USB - GNX_USB_Controller_v2_11_5.vkb

I was having the same issues. I was running v2.115 on my THQ-SEM combo and had inconsistent "Find & Config" button, along with constant "Need to Calibrate" pop-up. Closing background apps made no difference. The only fix that worked was downgrading firmware to v2.110, so my g...

Re: THQ / SEM not showing up correctly in Dev Config

Thanks fallout9. The after several tries, I was eventually able to get the "Find&AutoConfig" to appear. I don't know why but most of the time it doesn't show up after pressing the Default button; which is actually the issue I have now. Dev Config now reads as NXT SEM THQ XT v2.115 but ...
