Flash ROM Updates
The SPS-300 series register software is loaded in flash ROM. This program may

necessary.
The Flash ROM can be loaded through a PC Utility or by SD card.
CAUTION: Flash ROM update by either method must be done by a qualified, trained
technician. DO NOT POWER OFF OR ABORT any program loading once it has
started. Failure to follow the procedures exactly may cause the program to load
incompletely and for the register to fail completely.

The SPS-300 Flash ROM program is contained in a file named SPS300.bin. This file will be
provided to the authorized dealer by CRS, Inc. and contains both the Boot program area and
