5700ACO
Automatic Changeover
Page 32 Revision 1.0
4.5.4. Uploading the New Firmware
1. You should now see a prompt asking you to upload the file.
2. Upload the “*.bin” file supplied using the X-Modem transfer protocol of your terminal program. If
you do not start the upload within 10 minutes the unit’s Boot code will time out. You can restart the
upgrade process by power cycling the unit.
The 5700ACO application firmware in the bin file will have a name similar to:
5700ACO.bin
3. The boot code will indicate whether the operation was successful upon completion of the upload.
For Example:
MFC5407 WARM BOOT> |
4. The following is a list of possible reasons for a failed upload:
• If you get the message "transfer cancelled by remote" you must restart the terminal program and
load the bin file, then remove and install the module again.
• The supplied “*.bin” file is corrupt.
• Wrong file specified to be uploaded.
• Wrong file transfer protocol used – make sure you specify Xmodem, not Xmodem 1K.
• The PCs’ RS-232 communications port cannot handle a port speed of 57600.
• Noise induced into the Serial Upgrade cable.
4.5.5. Completing the Upgrade
1. Ensure the upgrade jumper is set to RUN. Power cycle the unit. The unit should now reboot.
2. You can now close the terminal program and disconnect the RS-232 serial cable from the PC.
4.6. SERIAL PORT CONFIGURATION AND STATUS
The COM serial port is used to configure the 5700ACO and read back status.
Connect a straight through serial cable (supplied with the 5700ACO) between the COM serial port on
the rear panel and a PC’s serial port. Start TeraTerm (or an equivalent terminal program) on the PC
and configure the port settings of the terminal program as follows:
