Firmware Notation Firmware consists of software routines which are stored on a non-volontile storage
Firmware is responsible for the ‚playing together‘ of Hardware and Software.
Storage :
Controller - Firmware is stored on the flash
MotorController - Firmware is stored on an
EEPROM

Firmware Hirarchy
For a correct working of software commands it´s necessary that:
EPAS-4 Version higher or equal of project version
(identical to Controller firmware version)
Firmwareversion of Controller is higher or equal to
Firmwareversion of Drive (MC-4, SCL, iSH )
