Will a graphics 808S eprom work in a data 808S? My data is version 7.2 and there is a 7.61 version on the bay for 20.00+ shipping. What would be the benifits? Thanks

This might help...

Looks like you need V 7.41

Q: Do I need to update the operating system software on a digital chassis Barco?
A: Most software updates are to accommodate new or improved hardware. Updating your software to a level that adds a function you want will have no effect if the relevant hardware is not installed as well, when the projector starts up and the controller does it's system check the thing you want will not appear in the menu because the controller does not detect the hardware required. One thing a controller software update will add to some projectors with Iris 2 is the functions of Iris 3 (The actual Iris control board is the same), this will include full auto geometry known as Auto Install. On some projectors the new memory bank system will be implemented with a software update, see this question for details. The same projectors will also gain the small text late style menu structure. Some early 800 series projectors may require an update to fix certain bugs.The software is on a plug-in EPROM so it just plugs into the main controller board. No projector set-up is lost or altered. Note: The Cine Max / 9 has to be updated with special dealer software and a PC. We offer this service if required. Latest version is V2.21
Q: Your Barco Graphics 808s projectors have V7.61 software, what's this?
A: Version 7.61 software for the Graphics 808s updates Iris 2 to Iris 3 and changes the large text earlier menu system to the small text modern version. There are also changes to how the projector operates on a day to day basis and the new memory bank system is implemented in full, see this question for details. We keep this software EPROM in stock if you wish to add these features to your Graphics 808s. We also stock V7.41 for Data 808s projectors, this is the latest version which implements all the same changes that V7.61 does for the graphics models
