Stupid Question

kd1na
Hi there all.
This may have been covered somewhere in the past but I haven't found it.

When you upgrade your firmware in the K3 should you redo your PLL and other alignments?

Seems logical to do so but my K3 seems to be functioning very well without redoing the alignments.

Any comments?

Thanks

Dave,

You should not have to re-do any alignment after a firmware load.

As part of the Firmware Test Team, I upgrade my firmware almost daily,
sometimes multiple times each day, and I do *not* redo the PLL or any
other alignment.

I would only re-do an alignment if the firmware change directly affected
it, and in that case, the firmware release instructions would state that
it should be done.  (It has not happened so far).
