Quantar firmware upgrade - need help upgrading codeplug vers

[oh2lak]

Ok, I managed to upgrade the firmware on my Quantro. I only have RSS R10 with which I've been happy as the station had R16 firmware.

Now I'm stuck with station not getting up, and apparently the reason is that the codeplug is too old. I have the R16 CP (version 10) stored, so I believe I'm in good shape.

Here's what I get out of the station through RSS:

4: NO MORE MESSAGES

The wireline card is plugged out, but I'm bothered why I don't see the exciter there. It is plugged in and it goes through the initialization but remains in 'PA FAIL' state. Most propably because of the station control issue.

If you can assist with upgrading the codeplug or other ways, please contact me via email or PM.
