1.2HOW DO I GET VERSION 2.00 SOFTWARE?

If you recently purchased a MasterLink and received this addendum in your MasterLink box, you already have version 2.00 software installed in your unit. To check this, turn on your MasterLink and press the UTILITY button repeatedly until the first line of the display reads "Util9: Sys Info". The second line of the display should read "Software: 2.00". If you do not have a "Util9: Sys Info" page, or if the second line of the display of that page does not read "Software: 2.00", then read the section below.
