5.8. UPLOAD NEW SOFTWARE VERSION
The software can be updated. The new software version is delivered as
MRx18Vxxx.hex file.
Disconnect the MRx18 from mains power.
Save the new software version file to a folder on the hard disk or USB-stick
of the laptop or PC, e.g. to C:\Temp.
For local connection, connect the straight CAT 6 patch cable to the
Ethernet connector of the MRx18 and the network connector of a laptop or
PC. For MRx18 connection to a LAN network, connect the cross-over
cable.
Open a command prompt (Start - Run…- cmd) and enter:
tftp 192.168.1.2 PUT “C:\Temp\MRx18Vxxx.hex” (Do not press the return
button yet).
figure 5-18 Upload new software version
Provide power to the MRx18 and press the return button of the laptop or PC
during the boot process (i.e. red ALC LED is blinking for four seconds).
After the software upload, the MRx18 will reboot automatically.
Note: Only the software is updated, the configuration settings made before the
update are not changed.
If the software upload had not been successful, it might be necessary to set the IP
address of the PC or laptop to a fixed IP, e.g. to 192.168.1.10 (please see chapter
5.5.4 Settings – LAN Connectivity).
