The display will again show a lower case U when the download is complete. Move option switch 7 to the OFF position to exit upgrade mode and start normal operation. You may check the new firmware version by entering configure mode and using the firmware version query function.

Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgrades

The upgrade program rewrites the AdderView's firmware code. If the upgrade process is interrupted then the AdderView will have invalid code and will not be able to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the upgrade process is always fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be rectified by performing another upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted accidentally then you should immediately repeat the upgrade process without moving switch 7 from the flash upgrade (ON) position. Switch 7 forces the AdderView into flash upgrade mode and prevents the upgraded code from being run. Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results and may damage your AdderView or computing equipment. For obvious reasons, the code that the AdderView uses to perform upgrades is not itself upgradeable - a common problem on some flash upgradeable products that could effectively be destroyed by a partial upgrade!

WARNING - Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results and may damage your AdderView or computing equipment.
