Unfortunately, even inspectors can be wrong at times. Both 2006 -AND- 2007 manuals state that -any- Victor 884 can be used:

<R29> Only Innovation First Incorporated “Victor 884” speed controllers and “Spike” relay modules are permitted. Other makes and models of relay modules and speed controllers (including the Victor 883 and 885 speed controllers) cannot be used.
In the days of the Victor 883, there were physical differences between the Red Label and the Blue Label Victors. There -were- rules back then about which ones you could use. With the release of the 884, however, this different went away. The Red and Blue labels are identical. Both IFI, and the Q&A from last year (obviously, last year's rules are not this year's rules) stated as much.
