18) Using your computer, examine the USB flash drive. It should have a file "mt5_update_log.txt".
This file will have summaries of updates indicating success or failure of the update.

After completing the update, use your browser to check that the update worked. 
On the main Multi-Tracer web page, the "Help" menu should now have an "About" menu item. 

Select this item. You should see a display summarizing the controller and load configurations.

Confirm that the Controller Software version is now 5.12

Confirm that the Controller Data Source Controller software version is 5.10

Confirm that the Load Data Source Load software version is also 5.11


Note: Do not be confused by the fact that the MT5 Controller runs two software programs. 
It runs the main control program, but because it also collects temperature and auxiliary data, 
it runs the same data acquisition software as the load units. 
Therefore it is important to confirm that both programs within the controller have been updated to the correct versions.
