16.1  Loading CIOM-A FIM firmware 
 
 
ATTENTION 
If the CIOM-A FIM is not installed and pre-configured by the factory, users 
must load the CIOM-A FIM's firmware to make it fully operational. This is also 
true for any replacement CIOM-A FIM ordered separately from the factory. 
 
 
Use the following procedures to check and load the CIOM-A FIM firmware, if required.  
 
 
TIP 
If you have updated firmware in a Control Processor Module (CPM), you will 
find that this procedure is almost identical.
