When downloading new firmware to the panels connected to my matrix I got a partial failure message
...
In the upgrade screen of EHX

This means that not all entities units (panels, beltpacks etc) in the configuration file that should receive the firmware being sent received it.
There are lots of reasons this could happen in a fairly normal way.
Maybe an a matrix card is configured but the card isn’t inserted for some reason. You wouldn’t expect that to work but “Partial Failure” is still the state as far as the EHX “Apply Firmware” dialog box is concerned.
