Note: The next 3 steps are only relevant for larger Cincoze units. Smaller units such as the DA-1000 and DC-1100 may not have the PCH-FW Configuration menu. If the menu is missing, skip ahead to the Save & Exit step.
- Now head back over to the Advanced tab and open the PCH-FW Configuration menu
- Select the only option
- Enable Me FW Image Re-Flash
- Save Changes and Exit
- The unit will now reboot and boot to the flash drive. If it reboots more than once, you will need to go back and enable Me FW Image Re-flash again. It only remains active for 1 reboot. This is a security feature.
- Press enter at the prompt to begin the flashing process
- Do not unplug the unit during the process
- If this error message is displayed, the firmware re-flash setting was not enabled correctly. Allow the process to complete. Go back to that step and try again.
