    ok

How to update the loader

  1. The loader is not updated with every firmware release, so you might already have the latest version. Check your current loader version on the Status page under System Information and update it only if there is a newer version available.
  2. To update the loader, follow steps 1 through 8 as seen above for the firmware update but instead of uploading the firmware, upload the loader.
  3. After a successful update, turn off the power.
  4. Press and hold the reset button and turn on the power.
  5. Release the reset button 20 seconds after turning on the power and you are done.
