Since phone apps are typically kept up to date via the update manager, it makes sense to code an app in such a way and it also makes sense to have the desktop version matching the app version and vice versa. Therefore you can use the latest APP and desktop software to configure older FW revisions. It adapts itself to the FW found on the device. Without getting too technical here: VESC-Tool is not a static software any longer. The task was not an easy one! Since VESC-Tool offers features and settings that might not be supported in older FW revisions and things in the background might also have shifted into other places, VESC-Tool must recognise an older FW and then adopt the user interface and setting options according to the older FW. This was the case many years ago and for many reasons Vedder decided to make VESC-Tool compatible with older versions of VESC firmware to avoid the need to store multiple software versions of VESC-Tool. Many users believe that using an older FW requires to use an older VESC-Tool version. This thread aims at describing how VESC-Tool interacts with older FW and where to find a specific FW release.
