(ASCEND) Upgrade software code



Hi there,

We are running 5.0Ai13 on Max4004, I have downloaded the 6.0b code
(tik.m40) and the release note for it and I am planning to upgrade it.
Since we have a bad experience when we upgraded the code to support K56
modem modules (that unit ended up RMAed), I am very cautious this time. I
have gone through the note and it mentioned something about "thin load" and
"fat load" but it did not mention whether I need "thin" or "fat" for the
current software version for my Max. 

So, can I just upload the 6.0b code by going to the debug mode and do a
"tloadcode" and "nvr" ? or I need to download something first?

Also, is this process reversible? ie. If something goes wrong, can I put
the 5.0Ai13 back on ?

Thanks

Daniel 


P.S. whenever you upgrade your software, never do it on Thursday or Friday
or else something goes wrong, you are stuck for the whole weekend.
