AdderView MP
Installation and Use

Step 5 - Complete the upgrade process
When the upgrade program reports that the upgrade process is complete, reset the
AdderView MP to start normal operation. This may be done by powering off the
AdderView MP or by using the reset switch located on the underside of the
AdderView.
Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgrades
The upgrade program rewrites the AdderView's firmware code. If the upgrade
process is interrupted then the AdderView 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 AdderView MP or computing
equipment. For obvious reasons, the code that the AdderView MP 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 AdderView or computing equipment.
