Open the WindowsCSAFE program. It may be necessary to set program to find the file you want
to access. On the tool bar menu choose Options, then set a90 folder. In the box that opens,
locate the folder you downloaded the files to, then hit OK.
Now you should ensure that the COM port is properly set. Choose Options, then Set COM Port,
and choose the proper port from the drop down menu.
Using the drop down menu under Flash Firmware choose the correct file for the equipment you
are servicing. Ensure that the power to the lower pca is removed, and that the lower pca has no
residual power. Connect the data cable between the computer and the CSAFE port on the upper
pca.
Press the Flash button, the data box at the bottom of the screen will prompt that upload will occur
when the upper pca is powered. Apply power to the unit. The upper display should not illuminate,
if it does you don't have a proper connection between the computer and the upper pca, or the
lower board was not fully discharged. Check the COM port setting and the lower pca, then when
both are correct hit Flash again.
When the connection is properly made the data box will indicate that upload is in progress. The
Progress bar will show the progress of the upload, which may take as much as 5 minutes,
depending on the download speed of the computer.
When the upload is complete, disconnect the cable between the computer and the unit, and
power the unit down, allowing the lower board to completely discharge. Power up the unit, and
verify the software version from the display.
