Boot-Resident/Main
Firmware update procedures may require this mode in case of firmware loading
errors (main/resident firmware part).
If you use the following switch settings and power the instrument up again, the
instrument firmware stays in the resident/main mode. In resident mode, it is not
operable as a module. It only uses basic functions of the operating system for
example, for communication. In this mode the main firmware can be loaded
(using update utilities).
