If you are upgrading from v2.x or v3.x to any version higher than v4.0.0.0 you must first load v4.0.0.0. Attempting to upgrade directly from an earlier version to v4.1.0.2 or higher will cause the EDSxPR to stop functioning. If this happens, the only resolution is to replace the EDSxPR. If the EDSxPR is out of warranty you will need to purchase a new unit.
V4.0.0.0 contains an upgraded Boot Loader, which must be loaded onto the device after the new firmware has been upgraded. After the new firmware is flashed and the device reboots, further firmware upgrades will be forbidden until the bootloader is upgraded as described in the process below.
