■ About Failsafe Mode During normal operation, software must be loaded from a flash memory drive during operations to use the Dante module integrated in the MMP1. However, data in a flash memory drive may occasionally become corrupted, as with any other storage device. In many cases, such data corruption is caused by turning the MMP1 power off during firmware upgrading. The Dante module has a specially protected flash drive section in order to recover from such a condition.
