**To the best of our knowledge these are the most current updates & info for these controllers.  Please double check with your manufacturer before purchasing.  We are not held liable for misreported or out-of-date information.


We have setup a Survey of the VRT controllers and the software used to write maps to them.  Please take some time to fill this out.  The feedback you provide will help the manufacturers to improve their products.
