Loading the new operator panel firmware from the PC
Description
Firmware might need to be loaded to the AOP if the AOP functionality has been updated.
If, once the drive has powered up, the memory card is found to contain a different version of
the firmware, a message appears on the AOP30 prompting you as to whether new firmware
should be loaded. You should click "YES" in response to this prompt.
The firmware will then be loaded automatically on the operator panel and the following dialog
screen will appear.
