1822.0. "DEFQA, Firmware Version?" by CSC32::HULL () Wed Oct 04 1995 15:54

    Hi,
    
      I have a customer that would like to get the firmware version on his 
    DEFQA using "only" software means.  I know how to do this on a DEMNA, 
    but not on a DEFQA.  If someone might know what the firmware versions 
    are, maybe I could match it up with what I am seeing in SDA.
    
    					Thanks,

    The version of the DEMNA is ^^^^ 8.2.  On the DEFQA the longword is:
    
    Device version     00000000 20312e30
    

>>    Device version     00000000 20312e30
    
in ASCII is "0.1 " but I think these values are backwards so I'd
guess it is actually revision 1.0.

    Thanks Dick!
    
      I never thought it might be in ascii, the DEMNA is numeric!
