Firmware update

Forced BOOT Mode

In certain situations, like for instance in case of power outage during regular FW update, CoolMasterNet can become irresponsible due to a luck of proper FW. In this case, to recover CoolMasterNet, it has to be updated via forced BOOT mode.

  • Set all dip switches on R line into ON position (up). Remember previous status of R dip switches. Do not change dip switches on P,Q,S lines
