should be displayed. If it is an unsuccessful upload, a message, “Write-flash
error” is displayed. If a Write-flash error occurs, ensure that the correct PC COM
port is selected for the instrument (see Section 9.10.2, step 4).

instrument is not powered up in 20 seconds, the screen will
display, “No boot loader detected.” Go back to step 1 to rewrite
the firmware.

It is not recommended to stop the writing process half way
through. This will cause the firmware to not be fully uploaded.
