+To upgrade the F16V5 firmware:
+
+1. Download the chosen F16V5 firmware fl3 file. This file will be named Falcon_16_Firmware_<build>.fl3
+2. Either
+	- Place the file onto an SD card and place that SD card in the SD slot on the controller and reboot 
+	  the conntroller. When the controller boots it will copy the file into flash ram on the board. Remove 
+	  the SD card when done and reboot the controller; or
+	- Navigate to the settings page on the controller web menu and select the "Update Firmware" link and 
+	  upload the downloaded fl3 file. Once done the controller will reboot.
+3. During the reboot the controller will validate the firmware. If it is incomplete or invalid the controller 
+   will tell you and delete the firmware without changing anything.
+4. If valid the controller will upgrade the firmware in generally the following order
+	- CPU 1
+	- CPU 2
+	- ESP (the wifi module code)
+	- ESP Files (the wifi web interface)
+5. Then it will erase the firmware files from flash ram (so it doesnt keep doing the upgrade)
+6. If successful the OLED screen and the status web page should show the correct build number. To check the 
+   ESP (wifi) updated you will need to access the wifi page. If you dont use the wifi interface then you can 
+   ignore this.

+# Falcon F16/F48 V5 Frequently Asked Questions/Issues
+
+Please see the manual [TO BE PUBLISHED]
+
+## Ports 17-32 Not Working on a F48
+
+When the controller is in 32 port mode to get 1024 pixels per output Ports 17-32 are actually Ports 33-48 on the board. This is to allow the user to use the onboard receiver.
+
+## Playback stops when playing a sequence from the SD Card
+
+The most common reason we have seen for this is not using a sufficiently high quality SD Card. We recommend 8-32GB SanDisk Class 10 SD Cards. Other cards will likely work but we have seen issues with cheaper no-name cards. When the issue occurs the sequence will just stop playing part way through and may display a timeout if you have logging turned on.
+
+## Controller Status Page Has Blank Board Type
+
+The best fix for this is to factory reset the controller by applying power while the select button is held down.
+
+## Controller OLED does not display anything when power is applied
+
+The most common reasons for this are:
+
+- Applying 5V but having the voltage selector set to 12V.
+- Habing the External power switch set incorrectly.
+
+## Network Green/Amber Lights dont light when network is connected
+
+Verify you have plugged the internet into one of the two silver RJ45 connectors with the black insides.
+
+## LOR/DMX Devices not seeing a signal
+
+Verify all 3 jumpers next to the DMX RJ45 port are set to the right position.
+
+## Wifi Web Page Returns 404 Errors
+
+Install/Reinstall the latest V5 firmware.
