K3 Firmware Issue

[ghaffly]

Good evening , While trying to load 4.22 I had a momentary loss of AC power
as new firmware was being loaded. Currently the front panel shows MCU LD and
the red TX LED is flashing. The K3 utility is attempting to communicate but
, The only thing happening is a scroll of the various bps connection speeds.
The box to send checked items and send all new firmware to K3 are both
grayed out.  I unplugged the K3 for a minute , applied power and held the
power switch in for 10 seconds with no change.

I would appreciate help getting firmware reloaded.

Thanks , Glenn

Turn K3 off, and close the K3 Utility.  Restart K3 then the utility and try
again.

hi Glenn,

Disconnect power from the K3, exit K3 utility, and start over: turn on  
the K3 (which will show MCU LD), then run K3 utility. The firmware  
checksum is incorrect because of the failed load, but K3 utility will  
do the right thing when you restart the process.
