Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgrades
The upgrade program rewrites the SmartView's firmware code. If the upgrade
process is interrupted then the SmartView will have invalid code and will not be able
to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the upgrade process is always
fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be rectified by performing another
upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted accidentally then you should
immediately repeat the upgrade process without moving switch 2 from the upgrade
(ON) position. Switch 2 forces the SmartView into flash upgrade mode and prevents
the upgraded code from being run. Running faulty or partially upgraded code may
have unpredictable results and may damage your SmartView or computing
equipment. For obvious reasons, the code that the SmartView uses to perform
upgrades is not itself upgradeable - a common problem on some flash upgradeable
products that could effectively be destroyed by a partial upgrade!

WARNING - Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable
results and may damage your SmartView or computing equipment.
