OK,
There were Crio, driver's station and Lab View updates in 2009, parts of which addressed the inability to turn off Jaguars reliably at the end of a match. Not only was it not possible to update the Jaguar, there was no way to check it since CAN was not legal in 2009 nor was it legal to connect to the CAN bus connector on the Jaguar.
