purchase the PRO functionality Product Key later, once the PRO option has
been activated you will no longer see command 8 displayed as there are
no remaining Options to Activate.
Activation ONLY needs to be performed
once and remains in effect forever.
With your KM9AUSB Activated now is a good
time to become familiar with how the SVP Zap button works.
It is safe to operate the Zap SVP button without any EEPROM connected.
It will fail almost immediately and give a
short burst of fast flashes on the Green EEPROM Activity LED which indicates a failed
Zap SVP operation, in this case it fails because obviously it can't find an
EEPROM since none is connected.
When the Zap SVP fails you will see this
error message displayed.
