I have both a Rio 500 and a Rio 600 - I was playing around with connecting to them via MC9 in build 124 (I know, an old one) and, after downloading the plugins for the devices, things generally worked, although I was getting a lot of crashes.
Since I had been intending to upgrade, I downloaded build 162, uninstalled 124, installed 162, re-downloaded the plugins for the Rios and tried to use them.
Now I get errors about the devices not being found and to check the drivers and that they are turned on. Well, they are definitely on (and windows detects them according to the device list) and the drivers were working fine in build 124, so I believe this is related to something that changed in MC between these builds - does anyone else use either device and do they work for you?
Thanks!
Jeff
