mands. Refer to the SOFTLOADSETUP command for details on how to convert from S0 S-Records to

anteed to be output from the receiver within 300 seconds from the time the SOFTLOADCOMMIT command
was received by the receiver.
7. Send the auth code for the newly downloaded image using the AUTH command. This is only required if there
is not already a signature auth code on the receiver as signature auth codes are maintained through a
SoftLoad update. See Authorization Code on page 51 for details on Auth Codes.
