The receiver has to be reflashed in order to update firmware, but the receiver ID info is actually in EEPROM. There was an old DOS program from Moto that would allow you to edit the receiver ID information in order to change options.

The code inside all receivers with the same version firmware (8.4, 10.0, etc.) is capable of operating in any mode. When the receiver boots it looks at the Option List in the receiver ID to see which options are active. Motorola liked to pretend that the timing and carrier phase receivers were more expensive because of specialized code, but in fact this was not the case. The code was always there, but the receiver would not use it if the option was not present in the receiver ID. --------------------------------------- I take it that means a flash upgrade would just have to modify the receiver ID, or even just the option list? :-) _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
