Hello,
I've the AL419 ODBII code reader and decided to updated it as Autel released a firmware update for the unit.
I've used MaxiLink2 software and after an update process is finished the unit says "Program Update has been done!" and manual says after you see that message go ahead and restart the unit. However there is no reset/restart button. if I power cycle the unit it goes back to the update mode. Does anyone know how to return the unit into operation mode?

thanks in advance.

Well... Just hung-up with Autel's technical support. Surprisingly enough the guy was really responsive and even offered to go step-by-step with the update via teamviewer session so he can see what's going on. Fortunately when I pugged in the unit it booted properly into the operational mode. The unit was off overnight. All seems to be ok now. Anyways I thought it could be helpful to someone.
