Does it matter what upgrade you do first? Also there no directions with them as the last update had?

Is there anything that needs to be turned on in Global settings or F Global settings to turn patch following on/off?

Bonus!

I'm shocked at how fast they rolled it out this time. No complaints (imagine that :D )

Thank you GRE & RS. :)

PS - I would do the CPU first. They must have upgraded the CPU to support the new 1.8 firmware, no? Maybe not, but that is how I did it.

I did the cpu first all went fine then tried the DSP but when i turn it on and put it in SW Upgrade its saying wait for PC/IF. Getting no response from scanner.

The "wait for PC/IF" sounds correct, if you've already performed step #3 in the upgrade app but haven't yet clicked the "UPDATE" button.

Are you following the upgrade app's instructions exactly, in sequence?

Here's what you should be doing:
1. Scanner powered up in its "normal operating mode", USB cable connected
2. Run DSP Update app
3. Select COM port and click "TEST" button
(app should indicate current scanner DSP version and prompt you)
4. Click the "Yes" button
5. Turn the scanner OFF
6. Turn the scanner ON and, while the "welcome message" is displayed, press
0 then PGM then ENTER
(now the scanner should be displaying "Wait for PC/IF")
7. In the PC app, click the "UPDATE" button

I am traveling and away from scanner. Can anyone tell the purpose of the updates and what they will do for the scanner?
Thanks

Don't the upgrade notes tell what the fixes are fo rthe release? Wasn't sure. I haven't downloaded the newest yet, but the past upgrades showed the fix information!
