Your FaroArm®, ScanArm, Design ScanArm, or Gage works best with the latest driver. This article shows you how to download the latest or earlier drivers.

After servicing or recalibration of your device, plan to download and install the latest driver BEFORE you use the device. The factory provides the most recent hardware improvements when servicing your device, so using the latest driver may be required.
