Use a USB devices to upgrade firmware
The following functionality is available from firmware version 4891 onwards.
The TransPort firmware can be upgraded using the USB storage device. To perform an upgrade:
1. Create a simple batch file named pb2.bat
2. Place the relevant firmware upgrade files into the root directory of the USB storage device.
3. Insert the USB device into the TransPort router.
4. Press the reset button twice. The firmware upgrade will begin. You will see output similar to
the following:

copy u:sbios1 sbios1
copy u:logcodes.txt logcodes.txt
copy u:image image
copy u:image4.c3 image4.c3
copy u:Y4890wVS.web Y4890wVS.web
move sbios1 sbios
scanr
flashleds
5. When the LEDs on the TransPort start flashing, the upgrade is complete.
6. Reboot the TransPort router to activate the new firmware.
Use USB devices with .all files
The following functionality is available from firmware version 4910 onwards.
A .all file is a special file that contains all of the firmware and configuration files in a single file
that has the file extension .all and is an exact copy of the TransPort router in its current state. This
.all file can then be applied to another TransPort router, as long as it is the same model.
1. To extract a .all file, use the Digi Flash Writer software.
2. Copy the extracted .all file to a USB storage device and insert the device into the TransPort
router.
3. Issue the command dir u: to confirm that the TransPort can access the USB device.
4. To copy the .all file onto the TransPort router, from the command line enter this copy
command:
copy u:mr4110.all t.all
Replace mr4110.all with the correct .all file name. The t.all destination name can be any
destination. The source file (in this example, mr4110.all) must adhere to the 8.3 filename
convention, owing to limits of the FAT file system, or the process will fail.
