ready to update the firmware, do one of the following:

make sure that Microsoft ActiveSync
®
technology is disabled
from using the COM port on the computer.
If you use a Palm Pilot with the computer, make sure that the
Palm Synchronization program is disabled from using the COM
port on the computer.
To update the receiver firmware when a new version is released:

2. Install the FlashLoader200 utility.
3. Connect the receiver to an office computer.
4. Upgrade the firmware from the office computer, using the
