The bootloader starts, but then nothing and the screen stays blank. What to do now ?? Can I do a new OS update from a flashcard, and how do i do that? Can I reset the panel to the original OS? Regards Ries.

I have done this several times before with other panels also MP370's. Then there were no problems. Can Iconnect tothe panel in an other way? Regards, Ries.

You solve this by setting the "booting" selection in ProSave, and then start OS Update. ProSave will then "listen" for the panel when it boots up and then "order" it to enter Transfer mode. So, connect the Prosave PC to the panel via serial, enable "booting", start the OS Update, and then cycle power on the panel. If everything goes well the OS update transfer will start.
