M9502A and M9505A AXIe Chassis Firmware
An update may take up to 60 minutes to complete depending on the type of components requiring an update. During this time, instrument modules installed in the chassis are deactivated to the ATCA service state to reduce power consumption and are unavailable for applications. The chassis fan speed may change during the update as well. Following the update, cycle chassis power to complete the installation.
