3.2.1.2
There are two ways to upgrade the firmware of the MAMBOII, one is upgraded locally
by SiRFflash tool and the other is done via wireless connection through Remote server.
The former one is the most common way for customer use and all instructions how to
upgrade the firmware locally via a serial connection are available in a separate
manual - See related documents [4], in chapter page
The second one is the most difficult way and it can be implemented only through
system integrators.

Except the information found in this document, FALCOM will not offer additional
technical support for developing/implementing such web-based solutions.
It is strongly recommended not to use these commands without special care.
All commands within this chapter enable to remote upgrade the MAMBOII device to a
new firmware version that is accessible over the Internet.
If the MAMBOII device performs a reset during firmware update, use the option Resume
to resume a previous update. The old firmware is replaced by the new one, only when
the command "$PFAL,Sys.RUpdate.Finish" completes.
