Chapter 2. Upgrading to Version 8.4

Allow the BreadCrumb to operate FOR NO LESS THAN 5 MINUTES before rebooting or turning OFF.

Important: After a flash update, you should ensure that at least one client device has the new BCAdmin installed, is "permitted" in the device’s ACL list, and is designated as an administrator. Important settings that were lost in the flash may be re-keyed, but do not reboot the BreadCrumb device until it has run for at least five minutes after its initial power-up after flash.

Rebooting before the end of the five-minute "bake period" can result in a faulty flash update, requiring the flash operation to be performed again.
