The updates that are appearing, are not affecting the use of the program*... PC Module is presently on version 4 Firmware.
Navigator has also had a Firmware update to version 2.20, again does not affect programming.
*Unlike the latest batch of Windows 10 updates which effectively turn the 'puter into an ornament for the duration!

I was pleasantly pleased with 21H1, downloaded and installed in less than 15 minutes.*Unlike the latest batch of Windows 10 updates which effectively turn the 'puter into an ornament for the duration!

, using the Navigator for programming, the S Plug sound module SUSI CV's are accessible to READ and WRITE.
Re the XL 2 Plug decoder, version 4.10 is the latest, decoder template and programming from a Navigator handset work as expected.
S Plug sound decoder, Firmware updated to 4.20, replacement sound file uploaded, redesigned template using conventional standard CV's works as expected, MST and programmer unable to communicate via SUSI.
With the Massoth 1210Z and Navigator SUSI CV's are accessible.
As these items are discontinued and the original info goes back to 2018, probably not worth the time or effort involved to find a solution to the MST and programmer problem.
At present working through a 100 odd pieces of Massoth equipment, some dating back to 2014 or so, been updating any relevant Firmware changes as required, testing the existing decoder templates, and making any alterations or improvements as required, uploading new sound files, etc, etc, have now put some serious effort into creating a 'blog', busily writing notes and later this year, is where any further info and details can be found.

Using the XL2 Plug decoder and the S-Plug sound decoder mounted on the PluG interface.
EDIT- SUSI cable not used.
All the values below were set using the 'S via SUSI>v3.5', not S PluG, template buttons or the odd individual 900 series CV write (e.g. 905). All the CV values were saved before writing them all at once
Below is the CV list before writing all CVs.
Here are those values being written. I changed a few function keys around to check the decoder was being re-programmed, and it was being updated.
And finally, this is the CV list immediately after the writes. Values lost, or changed, so don't save it after the decoder update. This only seems to happen if Wrte All CVs is used.
The above may explain my cycles of triumph and disaster as I have tended to use Write All often and then save, without realising it, the corrupted CV list, or maybe not.

Not as such, I got a reply back in June in German that I should use the emotion S Plug via SUSI template. I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
