Firmware can also be downloaded to accessory items via a direct USB connection
using the PC as a Virtual Master (Upgrading the Modero Firmware via the USB
port section on page 121). In this case, you will still need to know the System and
Device Number information of the target panel. For a more detailed description of
how to setup this type of connection, refer to the Configuring and Using USB with a
Virtual Master section on page 95.
DO NOT PLACE BATTERIES IN THE BASE BEFORE CONNECTING IT TO THE

installed onto the bottom of the NXT panel.
Having batteries in the base before connection can damage the battery base.
