Note
The receive hardware (RX HW) and software (RX SW) must both be on the
same version. In other words, the application software (.ASW) and FPGA RX
Firmware (.RXF) files being upgraded must have the same version numbers.
The Sonar Head will make sure the versions are the same. If not, the version
numbers shown in the
Head Firmware Configuration
dialog box will not be
updated.
