Transfer the new firmware to the product

	NOTE:	The product can receive an .RFU file update when it is in a “ready” state.

The elapsed time for an update depends on the I/O transfer time, as well as the time that it takes for the product to re-initialize. The I/O transfer time depends on a number of things, including the speed of the host computer that is sending the update. If the remote firmware update process is interrupted before the firmware is downloaded (while Receiving upgrade appears on the control-panel display), the firmware file must be sent again. If power is lost during the flash DIMM update (while the Performing upgrade message appears on the control-panel display), the update is interrupted and the message Resend upgrade appears (in English only) on the control-panel display. In this case, you must send the upgrade by using the parallel port. Finally, any jobs that are ahead of the RFU job in the queue are completed before the update is processed.
