    Hello all,

    I couldn't get the configurator to work, although the other threads said it was working... anyway. I have this CF30 here at work and I would like to know what this model number decodes to:

    CF-30FTSSQAM

    Anyone know?

    Thanks for your help

    You need to use Internet Exploder; the ToughBook Configurator is de-optimized for use with civilized browsers.

    Micro$uck tried to make a standards-compliant browser not too long ago... All their 'tard clients whinged until they broke it again.

    The Panasonic Toughbook Configurator shows:

    Model Number Not found. [CF-30FTSSQAM]

    However, I have read CF-29 Model Numbers from the BIOS screen and the Configurator gave the same type response when queried.

    Model Not Found in both Pana IE and Firefox. Is this the model # from your first bios screen?

    That sounds right, thank you for your help! I tried the configurator with IE and got the "Model number not found" message too.

    I had to "build" the configuration from other sources: it doesn't come up in Toughbook Configurator under the Model Number itself.
