General Output Conventions for Copy Operations

During a copy operation, any of the following characters may be printed
to the screen:

•A pound sign (#) generally means that a Flash memory device is being
cleared and initialized. (Different platforms use different ways of
indicating that Flash is being cleared.)

•An exclamation point (!) means that ten packets have been transferred.

•A series of "V" characters means that a checksum verification of the
file is occurring after the file is written to Flash memory.

•An "O" means an out-of-order packet.

•A period (.) means a timeout.

The last line in the output indicates whether the copy was successful.
