Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:8863967 | MPN: 1210Z |
| Brand: Massoth |
SOFTWARE UPDATE REQUIRED, item may not work in current configuration -- I purchased this item new 10 years ago, never used, it works (see photos) but I was told by an informed bidder this it will need a software upgrade from Massoth. A bidder infromed me that a dealer has informed him about updating these Massoth DiMax 1210Z Central Stations. The dealer says if they are to old and they have not periodically been updated throughout the years with the proper firmware ( this is the c...ase with this item), they cannot be used or updated easily. They would have to be sent back to Germany to be fixed and updated which could take 2-3 months and cost about an estimated $200 to $300. Additionally, in order for your unit to be updated to the current firmware on you 2019 style computer, you need to find a solution to link the old format serial cable on the unit ( see pictures) to a USB PC connector -- I have no idea what this entails. The Massoth manual for this unit can be found on several web sites.
Offered AS-IS at a very low auction price. I paid over $800 for this in 2008.
