To upgrade multiple units, use the Multi-Select feature (Ctrl-click, Shift-click)

to select the desired units, then execute the Upgrade command. In this case, the

mode of transfer can be specified:

Consecutive – uses unicast method to upgrade each unit successively.

Concurrent – uses unicast method to upgrade all units simultaneously.

Codecast – uses multicast method to upgrade all units simultaneously.

Note that this mode utilizes Streamload 2 protocol, and is applicable to

CDM-8XX series (version 1.5.2.x or greater), SLM-5650A, and ROSS

units.

When the upgrade process begins, the progress of each of the targeted units is

displayed by the Operations Monitor, which will display the image burning

phase and report either successful completion (green) or failure (red). The oper-

ator can then safely reset the unit(s).
The monitor window also provides the option to terminate an upgrade attempt

by presenting an Abort button.
