Zastone ZT-D9000 programming software
Open WebCHIRPWebCHIRP programs the Zastone ZT-D9000 in your browser. It runs the CHIRP project's own driver for this radio, so it reads and writes the same codeplug the desktop software does — without installing anything.
No driver install needed
Zastone programming cables use a CH340, CP2102, PL2303 or FTDI USB-serial chip. WebCHIRP speaks to all four directly from the browser, so there is no driver package to download and no Windows version to match. Plug the cable in and pick the port when the browser asks.

Can I update the firmware on the ZT-D9000?
Zastone publishes no firmware update for the ZT-D9000: its radios are programmed at the factory, and their firmware is not meant to be replaced. Its download site has a firmware section, but the ZT-X6 is not in it.
WebCHIRP does not flash firmware. It reads and writes the channel list and settings over the programming cable, which is a separate part of the radio.
