I can't figure out how to convert from a T3-V 433Mhz to T3-V 2.4GHz.

On the processors there is a CONVERT TO under the DEVICE menu. On a T3 the CONVERT TO is there too. There is no CONVERT TO when a T3-V 433MHz is active.

Figured it out. DEVICE>PROPERTIES. Check box that the device has Firmware 2.0. Then Go to output tab and change to Two-Way Trigger Codes for Control System and the Two-Way Transport will be set to ZigBee.

I also had to find the check box on the XP-8 to tell it that there was 2.0 firmware.

See, it was that easy and you didnt even need our help
There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

There should be a CONVERT option in the DEVICE menu.

I ended up having to leave the site without getting anything working. I can't seem to communicate with the ZigBee receiver and I have no idea what lights I am supposed to be seeing on the ZM-24 antenna. Hopefully fresh eyes in the morning will help.

I would think that the missing Zigbee RF radio would make your efforts futile, wouldnt it?

Who said that I'm missing a ZigBee radio? I had some T3-V programming that I wanted to use on a new T3-V ZigBee. In the past when we changed from the T3 to the T3-V we converted the device so my logical place to look. Now there's a series of check boxes to find which is not as intuitive. The software should be able to detect the type of hardware being used after the first sync which wouldn't require checking boxes for different firmware versions or communication protocols.

So... just tried to do a convert from a T3v 433 to a T3v 2.4 and I could not get it to work. I imported the T3v 433 into a new file containing a T3v 2.4 and a ZRP6. I edited the properties of the 433 to output two way trigger codes, use zigbee and that it was firmware 2.0 or higher. is there any update to this issue?

So... perhaps i am silly. If I change the properties to two way and zigbee will my T3v 433 template automatically become 2.4 when I upload it to the 2.4 remote thus not require conversion???
