5.2.2  FPGA upload 

 

If you try to load FPGA on electrical EN100 module, you get a note at the site 

firmware update status

because it is not possible to upload an FPGA on an electrical EN100 module. 

 

Figure 5-7 – FW update progress page after failed download – wrong FPGA image 

For more Information you may consult the system log site, where in this case some information available if 
the update fails. 

Note: After a device reboot the information logs are lost.
