This archive contains the tools to update a BIOS to a

All of the files are only suitable to be used with the

For a detailed information about the usage of the flash

2. Revision Information

From time to time Kontron makes updates to their standard
products. Such an update can be a change of hardware or a
change of the BIOS. Every file in this archive can already
be changed to a newer version without notice. The latest
versions will however be available on the web as soon as
they are released.
You can easily find out if something has changed to this
product software by comparing the Archive File Names.

The naming convention is:

Whenever x or zzz changes, download the new archive to
