Crimson for new features and drivers are posted on the website as they become
available. By configuring the G303 using the latest version of Crimson, you are
assured that your unit has the most up to date feature set. Crimson software can
configure the G303 through the RS232 PGM port, USB port, or CompactFlash.
The driver needed to use the USB port will be installed with Crimson.
