Power up the AC source using its on/off switch. A message will appear on the LCD once the
power comes on:

Please wait…

After about 30 seconds, this message changes to:

Loading Program…

When this “Loading Program…” message appears on the LCD of the MX front panel, press the
ENTER key on the keypad of the MX unit once
. If you wait too long, you may have missed the
window and you will have to recycle power on the AC source and try again.

This will put the source controller into the Flash down load mode. Wait until the screen shown
below appears. This screen shows the RS232 setup parameters that are used in the boot loader
mode.
