Once the evaluation is completed and CIP determines that there are updates available a "Status report" is generated.

NOTE: Status report is similar to a measures plan.

The status report identifies the control modules for which an update is available and also indicates if the module will need to be reprogrammed or replaced.

Information is also provided indicating the current programmed part number and also what the number should be after an update is performed.
