ASMi-52 automatically erases the backup partition. Once downloading is
completed, ASMi-52 saves the new release as an active partition, the
former active partition becomes the backup.
Once downloading is complete, ASMi-52 decompresses the release file,
displaying the following message:
Final process download. Reset
After the decompression, ASMi-52 saves the new release as an active
partition, the former active partition becomes backup. Then the unit resets
itself. This causes the new software to be loaded into the modem's RAM.
