Ohmic sensing with Mesa Thcad2

Hi,
It was mentioned that there is a special bit file for the 7i96S to use a second encoder channel if one wants to do ohmic sensing with a Thad2 and the 7i96S?
I looked at the ZIP file with all the support bit files but I a cannot decode the bit file names to tell me what to use? Anyone got some info please?
 

7i96s_dpl.bin is made for this kind of use

Peter I get an "invalid bit file header" error if I try to load that bin file.

You may need to update your copy of mesaflash.

I get:

peter@peter-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-USDT:~/bitfiles$ mesaflash --device 7i96s --addr 10.10.10.10 --write 7i96s_dpl.bin --reload

My mesaflash is from Master branch. Can it be outdated?
My version is 3.4.0-pre1
 

Yes, that's pretty old:

peter@peter-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-USDT:~/bitfiles$ mesaflash --version
Mesaflash version 3.4.8

Oh ok. Didn't realize that. We should ask the gents to put the latest in master at least.
Do I have to download and compile?

Yes, I would download and re-compile
 3.4.0 is about 2 years old

That worked. Thanks Peter. I will just download and compile as a rule.
