message on your PC:
Downloading to Flash: Receiving File. . .
This and all of the messages are transmitted at 9600 baud. If you selected a
different baud rate, the messages will not be displayed correctly. However,
the download will work correctly.

rate of your terminal emulator to match the download speed that you
selected. If you are using the HyperTerminal application, select File ->
Properties -> Configure. You must select the Disconnect icon followed by
the Connect icon to get the baud rate changes to take effect.
9. Select Transfer and then Send File menu items from your PC’s Windows
application. You will be prompted to select the file to download.
The HyperTerminal application is configured for Zmodem by default. You
need to make sure that you select Xmodem from the Send File dialog box.
CAUTION If you selected a baud rate other than 9600, the message following the successful
download will not be displayed correctly. In this case, wait approximately 2
minutes before power cycling the probe to ensure that the new firmware is written
to FLASH memory correctly.
If your download was not successful, it is recommended that you repeat the
process using 9600 baud so that all error message will be displayed correctly.
After the download process is complete, the probe reboots and starts running the
new firmware.
If an error occurs during the download process, the probe returns to the Main
Menu without storing the new firmware to memory.
