Updating the firmware doesn't need to be incremental right? In other words if you pass on 1.17, you can still upgrade to the next version? Whenever that come out.
Thanks.

It can be incremental. I believe you needed to update to at least 1.15 or 1.16 to update to 1.17. If you had the original firmware the first AF100's shipped with you wouldn't be able to update to 1.17. Might as well update it even if you don't use HE mode just in case.

Makes sense. Thanks!
