I'm had some problems with the upgrade.

I had the 106 connected and have tested the Com port. and it saw the port OK.

When I click to proceed, it appears the upgrade is working only for about 10 seconds and then goes to "CPU - Not Responding".

I tried it 20 more times and finally it completed the update.

Thanks

Oh well, easy install to both my Pro-106 & 197.
Could be a sign of a rare company writing docs long before scheduled release date and actually testing their software instead of subscribing to the "just ship it" common mentality these days.

I think it did that to me when I updated to 2.0 because I got the same message, but it worked the second time.

Are the upgrades all inclusive? If I don't have 2.0 yet should I flash that before 2.1?
