You might need to upgrade that beast to get 6.10 working!What would the best SW package to use with this programmer? I saw mention of PL6.1 and other SW versions. A Version 01 - 05 would work best with PL3.4 as it uses only 4 digit family/pinout codes. PL 6.10 works with a Version 06 29B with 6 digit family/pinout codes. 6 digit codes were added starting at Unipak 2/2B Version 15.0
Thanks for this thread!
Ok, here is the version of software that got my 29B running on XP. I also booted up the 29A on the same software and its also talking. Both instances I had Unipak 2B installed, not sure if the standard unipak will work but I dont see it in the list in the software. I will give that a try but you might have to look for a unipak 2B. Also a link to a list of family/pinout codes.

One thing that is strange is the 29B boots right to remote mode. Whats the code to use it standalone?
