position.
Step 3 - Reset the CPU Switch Smart DVI

removing the optional power adapter.
Step 4 - Ensure that the CPU Switch Smart is powered on

the CPU Switch Smart when it is powered from a single computer, however it is
good practice to ensure that there is the maximum possible power availability during
flash upgrades and so if possible ensure that all the computers are powered on. The
upgrade program monitors the CPU Switch Smart's voltage and will not allow an
upgrade to be performed if the voltage is insufficient.
