ATTENTION: All Ethernet settings are reverted to factory default after
a ControlFLASH firmware upgrade. For users who need to use the
same static IP address as previously set, for example, use the Memory
Module to store project settings prior to a flash upgrade so that you
can have the option to restore your original Ethernet settings.
To successfully flash update your controller over USB when using the
ControlFLASH software, connect only one controller to your computer,
and do not run ControlFLASH in a virtual machine such as VMware.
