Note:
Secure boot file is the last system boot resort. You can download it in the Boot ROM
menu and must name it secure.bin. However, you cannot modify this file or change the
type of another file to S. If you change the name of the secure boot file with the rename
command after the system boots, no secure boot file exists in Flash memory. To use
the secure boot file after that, you need to download it again.
You can also perform these operations in the Boot ROM menu, with reference to the
Installation Manual accompanying the device you work with.
