Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgrades 
The upgrade program rewrites the LINDY CPU Switch Smart’s firmware code. If the 
upgrade process is interrupted then the LINDY CPU Switch Smart will have invalid 
code and will not be able to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the 
upgrade process is always fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be 
rectified by performing another upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted 
accidentally then you should immediately repeat the upgrade process without 
moving switch 7 from the flash upgrade (ON) position. Switch 7 forces the LINDY 
CPU Switch Smart into flash upgrade mode and prevents the upgraded code from 
being run. Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results 
and may damage your LINDY CPU Switch Smart or computing equipment. For 
obvious reasons, the code that the LINDY CPU Switch Smart uses to perform 
upgrades is not itself upgradeable - a common problem on some flash upgradeable 
products that could effectively be destroyed by a partial upgrade!  
 
WARNING - Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable 
results and may damage your LINDY CPU Switch Smart or computing 
equipment.
