This will require TRAXsales updates 11.5 or higher and a pre – established internet connection. If you don’t know which version you are currently on, just go to Help up on the menu bar and About… and this will tell you which version of Trax you are running. If it isn’t 11.5 or better please call Mike at 888-646-5462.
