Q: What happens if I use an old version of ION Setup to upgrade my meter
A: Depending on the age of ION Setup, when selecting the .ZIP file, ION Setup will provide a warning to upgrade the version of ION Setup before starting the upgrade. However if the .upx file is sent without the zip file, ION Setup cannot check what version of ION Setup is required. After ION Setup sends the upgrade file, ION Setup will try to program the meter and send saved register information like accumulated energy. However there will be an error and ION Setup will not be able to write the values. Register information data loss will occur. The firmware will be upgraded however the meter will not have the template loaded.
