2621 2017-02-17 Lab none Upgrade Lab none Upgraded firmware to correct for W bug. The upgrade failed the first time because the Power-on message had been turned off. Without the Power-on message, the upgrade wizard cannot check if the checksums are correct. After I turned on the Power-on message, I used the second upgrade (X074417-s.gcu) file to complete the upgrade.

New SN: X074417
Upgrade file: Y074417-Y124215-m.gcu, X074417-s.gcu
Old firmware: 2329-114-01
