BRD/Members: What is the correct procedure to perform when using a USB Flashdrive (setup.alp) to change the CONTROL BOX settings?
*During the last few f/w's there have upgrades to both the "Control Box" & the "Control Set",& I have loaded them both on the USB stick.
1. Do I leave the ALP system on, then insert the USB Flashdrive into the USB port, then remove the Flashdrive when the download is complete?
-I don't,I have inserted the USB w/ the AL-P "OFF".
2. Do I have to turn the system OFF, then back ON, after the new CONTROL BOX settings download is complete?
-Yes,after the "Control Box" f/w completes loading,I turm "OFF" the AL-P via the "Control Set" button...wait 10sec...then turn power back "ON" via the "Control Set" button. (this now causes the "Control Set" f/w to now load.)
3. Or do I just leave the system ON after the new CONTROL BOX settings download is complete?
- Here's where I get more anal about removing anything "hot" (w/ power "ON")...after "Control Set" f/w completes loading,I then turn "OFF" power & consider it now ok to remove the USB stick safely !
3. From everything I have read and viewed, with the ALP system ON, I would just insert the Flashdrive, with the new settings I want, into the USB port, the system downloads the data in a few seconds, I then remove the drive, and I do not have to do anything else. Is this correct?
- Only if you don't have a "Control Set" f/w to also upgrade.(I would still be overly cautious & turn power "OFF" before removing USB,but that's just me)
Thanks again for your help.
