Run software update



Start the software update via the "Erase-Program-Verify" button (1). The

bootloader application loads the new software update in the Control Unit. Af-
ter successful completion, the confirmation "Verification successful" is dis-
played, as shown in the following figure. The control unit automatically
switches to the new program after the waiting time and can be configured via
the "aflexConfigurator".
