4.3.1. Upgrading the Firmware using FTP
You will need the following equipment in order to update the Firmware:
• PC with available communications port and Ethernet network port. The communication speed is
1152600 baud, therefore a 486 PC or better with a 16550 UART based communications port is
recommended.
• “Straight-thru” serial extension cable (DB9 female to DB9 male) or (DB25 female to DB9 male).
• Appropriate Ethernet cable as outlined in section 2.6.
• Terminal program such as HyperTerminal.
• New firmware supplied by Evertz.
4.3.1.1. Step 1 – Determine the IP Addresses
Before any FTP (file transfer protocol) upgrades can be initiated, the user must determine the IP address
of the HDSDS9545DLY-PRO unit. Both the PC/laptop and the unit must be on the same subnet for the
FTP upgrade to work properly.
1. Connect a ‘straight through’ serial cable to the REMOTE CTL DB9 connector on the rear panel.
2. Connect the 9 pin female connector on the end of the serial cable to the PCs’ RS-232 communications
port.
3. Start the terminal program.
4. Configure the port settings of the terminal program as follows:
Baud
115200
Parity
no
Data bits
8
Stop bits
2
Flow Control
None
5. Once the frame is powered-up, the HyperTerminal connection displays boot-up status information and
once completed, ends with the “Status Message” as shown below:
Initialization Completed - HDSD9545DLY-PRO Running
6. Press the <Enter> key to see the main Menu.
