All software information that are provided by a device through ecologConnect can be seen in the table inside the software tab:

The first column contains the name of the software on the device and the second column indicates the current software version of that software. Depending on the devices implementation a build-date, a Code CRC and Head CRC are provided. The last column shows which software is currently running as active operating system.
