Do not plug the iR2016 into a power strip shared with heaters, refrigerators, or laser printers. Use a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) with voltage regulation. Brownouts are a leading cause of firmware corruption.
The primary cause. If a firmware update is interrupted (power loss, cable disconnect, PC crash) or if the wrong firmware version is uploaded, the controller board’s boot sequence defaults to "Download Standby" as a safe recovery mode.
