Old SN: Y120908 New SN: X120908 Upgrade file: Y074417-Y124215-m.gcu, Y012345-s.gcu, X120908 X124215-m.gcu Old firmware: 2329-114 New firmware: 2329-116-01 All Checksum fields report PASS. There are multiple upgrade .gcu files. During the initial upgrade using file "Y074417-Y124215-m.gcu," the sensor was set at 57,600 baud rate. This baud rate caused an error in the upgrade, so the SN reset to Y012345. Gill sent me the second upgrade file, "Y-12345-s.gcu," which reset the sensor to SN X120908. Finally, I used the third upgrade file, "X120908 X124215-m.gcu," to upgrade the firmware. Log file: WMUpgradeLog_X120908_170106_122011.txt Config file below.
