The inverter starts copying the data.
"BOOT" and the progress of storing the individual tests expressed in % are displayed until
all the data for all the electronic modules has been copied.
Once copying is complete, the inverter updates the electronic modules as required in se-
quence.
"BOOT", the affected modules and the update progress in % are displayed.
The final step is for the inverter to update the display.
The display remains dark for approx. 1 minute while the monitoring and status LEDs flash.

move hardware" function.
When the inverter firmware is updated, any custom settings that were configured in the
Setup menu are retained.
