<title>Flash Image</title>
<para>
+ This reprograms any Altus Metrum device by using a TeleMetrum or
+ TeleDongle as a programming dongle. Please read the directions
+ for connecting the programming cable in the main TeleMetrum
+ manual before reading these instructions.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once you have the programmer and target devices connected,
+ push the 'Flash Image' button. That will present a dialog box
+ listing all of the connected devices. Carefully select the
+ programmer device, not the device to be programmed.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Next, select the image to flash to the device. These are named
+ with the product name and firmware version. The file selector
+ will start in the directory containing the firmware included
+ with the AltosUI package. Navigate to the directory containing
+ the desired firmware if it isn't there.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Next, a small dialog containing the device serial number and
+ RF calibration values should appear. If these values are
+ incorrect (possibly due to a corrupted image in the device),
+ enter the correct values here.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Finally, a dialog containing a progress bar will follow the
+ programming process.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When programming is complete, the target device will
+ reboot. Note that if the target device is connected via USB, you
+ will have to unplug it and then plug it back in for the USB
+ connection to reset so that you can communicate with the device
+ again.
