WARNING
1– Loading a new version can update the FPGA content. After a software update, Cantar will
reboot and update the FPGA. A dedicated screen with progress bar will appear.
As written DO NOT POWER OFF Cantar during this step. For safety, please use at least 2
power sources during update (e.g. 2 batteries or 1 external power on the XLR4 and 1 battery)
2 – Cantar's operating system is contained on a MicroSD on the mother board, DO NOT
REMOVE IT from the Cantar and try to plug it on a computer. Just by accessing it, the computer
can damage the card, and thereby preventing the Cantar to boot.
