CPU Switch Smart SUN-MAC-PCInstallation and Use

Page 26

During the upgrade the display will show an upper case U and the dot will flash to
show that the upgrade is in progress.

Step 5 - Complete the upgrade process

When the upgrade program reports that the upgrade process is complete, reset the
CPU Switch Smart SUN-MAC-PC to start normal operation. This may be done by
powering off the CPU Switch Smart SUN-MAC-PC or by using the reset switch
located on the underside of the CPU Switch Smart.

Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgrades
The upgrade program rewrites the CPU Switch Smart's firmware code. If the
upgrade process is interrupted then the CPU Switch Smart will have invalid code
and will not be able to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the
upgrade process is always fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be
rectified by performing another upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted
accidentally then you should immediately repeat the upgrade process. Running
faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results and may damage
your CPU Switch Smart SUN-MAC-PC or computing equipment. For obvious
reasons, the code that the CPU Switch Smart SUN-MAC-PC uses to perform
upgrades is not itself upgradeable - a common problem on some flash upgradeable
products that could effectively be destroyed by a partial upgrade!

WARNING - Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable
results and may damage your CPU Switch Smart or computing equipment.
