I'd have to concur with this statement. Following the manual prior to today's warnings, when reaching the driver station step in section 1.6, one of our students completed the associated steps in section two. Then, after completing step 5 in the driver station setup procedure, he began on step 6. So, entirely in good faith, he proceeded to section 3.1 after completing the setup (at the "For more information refer to..." line). This lead him to the instructions for updating the firmware.

So, without any warning to not do so, while acting in good faith, and before the e-mail, web page, and document updates to warn us were released, we updated firmware before a bench top test.

...We are working around it though.
