RSView ME Station File Compatibilty error

[Chasberrypi 0]

I have a file that is a RSView ME Station( That is what is says in File Explore) and when I try to open it I get a incompatibility error. I've tried a few different revisions but none have helped. 

Anyone know a way to look up what firmware revision it is using?

Here's a thread where a member created a tool that extracts the version information:

Can you post your MER file here?

edit:
I missed where you said it was ME Station. That may not help...

Pretty sure the "Station" nomenclature is for RSView SE, not ME.

I'm not sure, but I think there's an ME Station program that lets you run ME files on a PC. But I could be totally off on that. I remember running across something back in the dark ages when cobwebs were new...

ME Station is the PC based Application which lets you run a Factory Talk View Machine Edition executable {*.mer) file on a standard PC.

Your edition of ME Station and your edition of the *.MER file must align.

Using Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs should tell you what edition of ME Station you have installed.

Opening the *.MER with Factory Talk View Studio Application Manager will tell you what edition it is.  There is also a tool from RA to determine what revision it is.

I had to use V12 in order for it to work. Don't know why it worked.

Thanks everyone who suggested ideas.
