To update the user program please go through the following steps to ensure a
complete software download:

nal program.
The boot loader will now clear the sectors containing the user program!

be ready to receive flash programming data.
3. Send the file "Q100_xxx.txt" as text to the QUICK
®

using the menu "Send text file..." in the menu "Transfer" of the Hyper Terminal

This part will take some time until the entire data is flashed. The QUICK
®
100

If you quit the boot loader mode without any valid user program in the flash mem-
