Chapter 5. The Firmware Upgrade Utility

If you enabled Check Firmware Version, the Utility compares the device's firmware level with that of the upgrade files. If it finds that the device's version is higher than the upgrade version, it brings up a dialog box informing you of the situation and gives you the option to Continue or Cancel.

If you did not enable Check Firmware Version, the Utility installs the upgrade files without checking whether or not they are a higher level.

As the upgrade proceeds, status messages appear in the Status Messages panel, and the progress toward completion is shown on the Progress... bar. The highlight / color of the device name in the Device List panel also changes as follows:

ŠGreen - the device is being prepared for upgrade

ŠBlue - firmware upgrade is in progress

ŠMagenta - firmware upgrade is successful

Upgrade Succeeded

After the upgrade has completed, a screen appears to inform you that the procedure was successful:
