During boot loader, the Centurion controller allows users to remain connected to both the PC and the C3-3
Display and update the two devices with a single connection.
During a download from the MConfigPro software, the user downloads to the C3-3 Display without entering
boot loader mode and upon transferring the message, the Centurion controller is directed to accept the mes-
sage through one port (Port 2) and pass it through another port (Port 1) directly to the C3-3 Display, as if the PC
and C3-3 Display were directly connected.

Firmware updates for the C3-3 Display require a USB con-
nection. While boot loader mode for the display is not
required for configuration downloads, it is required for
firmware updates.
The bootloader can be entered by menu selection if the USB
cable is currently connected, otherwise the C3-3 Display will
reset and restart the current application firmware. Optionally,
the bootloader can be entered by connecting the USB cable
and cycling power. (This method will leave the display blank
while in the bootloader.)
Upon entry to the bootloader, all communication to the con-
troller will stop. There is a red status LED below the USB con-
nector that will blink three times and then remain on while the
bootloader is active.
While a file is being transferred, the Com 2 transmit LED will
appear to be lit continuously. A successful download should
complete in approximately five minutes.
