PSS 5000 – Technical Manual
5 Installation (Menu 2)
5.6 Software Upload (Menu 2.6)
Description of the
Software Upload menu
Software upload is done by uploading a file via FTP and/or by using the Web
interface (PSS program dependent).
An upload will clear the old program from the system, so normal operation is
interrupted during a program change. A program change automatically results
in a Master Reset of the system. Software uploads can be performed from a
remote location, but not before someone has set the system in a mode where it
is permitted to load software.
Setting the PSS 5000 to accept software uploads is enabled using either the
web service pages or the local service panel.
