more than 5 versions older than the most current version on the Xantech
Firmware Upgrade Page or if the MRC88 Controller is not functioning correctly.

downloaded in Section: Downloading Firmware Files From the Web/Step 6

firmware version that was just loaded into the MRC88 Controller. If this is true,
