• OMEGA 3.0 runs with full functionality on Windows Vista (32 bit) as well as Windows XP (32 bit). Gerber recommends 32 bit Windows operating systems. OMEGA 3.0 will run on 64 bit Windows systems with full functionality EXCEPT that EDGE 2 ECP Parallel port communication is not supported by these systems.

• Onyx 7.03 products are not Windows Vista compatible. Onyx is currently working on 32-bit Vista-compatible versions of their products. Current timelines for Onyx and Vista-compatibility are Spring/Summer 2007.

If you have a GERBER EDGE 2 and choose to upgrade your PC, you will need an ECP parallel port on the mother board to drive the EDGE 2. If this ECP parallel port is not available, the addition of an aftermarket ECP card will NOT work with the EDGE 2. Customers can purchase the USB-to-Parallel cable option if an ECP port is not available on their PC. (More...)

For those customers who have a GERBER EDGE and/or EDGE 2 but no ECP parallel connectivity, Gerber is pleased to announce the availability of a USB-to-Parallel cable option for use with the GERBER EDGE or EDGE 2 and OMEGA 2.5. (More...)
