If you enabled
Check Firmware Version
, the Utility compares the
device's firmware level with that of the upgrade files. If it finds that the
device's version is higher than the upgrade version, it brings up a dialog
box informing you of the situation and gives you the option to
Continue
or
Cancel
.
If you did not enable
Check Firmware Version
, the Utility installs the
upgrade files without checking whether or not they are a higher level.
As the upgrade proceeds, status messages appear in the
Status Messages
panel, and the progress toward completion is shown on the

bar.
