module will go out to the Internet and download the latest version of the system firmware and then install it. If the module cannot access the Internet directly (perhaps due to a Web proxy or other firewalls), then a page will be shown that causes your browser to download the required file. Save this file to disk and then upload it as described in the next section, Manual Upload. The main FPGA is upgraded separately, and has its own Upgrade button. This file is unique for each unit, so it must be done in this manner.

If you have multiple units to upgrade, you may choose the Get latest version button that will not attempt to upgrade the unit directly, but will instead fetch the required file. This file can be uploaded to multiple units manually. You may also choose Reboot Myself at the bottom of the screen to restart the unit without powering on and off.
