Once the status bar has progressed fully from left to right across the indicator
window, the firmware loader utility resets the switcher (figure 5-5).

The firmware loader utility increases the serial port’s baud rate to 115,200 to

with the switcher may not be possible. If you are no longer able to
communicate with the switcher after the firmware upload completes, see
Selecting the RS-232/RS-422 protocol and baud rate in chapter 3,
Operation, on page 3-35.
