10.5 Nucleus 2450 RollCall File and WebContent File Update
The RollCall Command Set and Webcontent files are installed on the Nucleus 2450 controller
by default and are required when using RollCall to connect to the Sirius router. RollCall must
also be enabled on the Nucleus 2450 controller (RollCall is enabled by default, see section
9.6.3 for details). When installed and enabled on the controller the RollCall web applet can be
used to connect to the router. These files only need to be updated when a newer version is
released.
There are two methods to update the RollCall Command Set and Webcontent files:
• FTP access to the Nucleus, see section 10.5.1.
• Removing the compact flash card and copying the directories to the compact flash
card, see section 10.5.2.
10.5.1 Update using FTP
1. Use Workbench to check the IP address(es) of the Nucleus controller(s) to be
updated.
2. Use a client FTP program such as “FileZilla” or “SmartFTP”. Open an FTP connection
to either one of the Nucleus controllers in the router using the IP address of the
Nucleus and the normal login:
User: 2450
Password: xyz
3. Delete the following directories from the root of the Compact flash card:
Matrix
Nucleus
Webcontent
XY Panel
4. Copy the following directories from the Workbench computer to the root directory of
the compact flash card:
Matrix
Nucleus
XY Panel
The directories to be copied are located here:
C:\Program Files\Snell\MCM\Controllers\RollCall_Templates\
(assuming Workbench is installed in the default directory)
5. Copy the Webcontent directory from the Workbench computer to the root directory of
the compact flash card:
The Webcontent directory is located here:
C:\Program Files\Snell\MCM\Controllers\
(assuming Workbench is installed in the default directory)
6. Now use the FTP program to connect to the second Nucleus controller (if it is fitted)
and repeat the process so that both controllers contain the new directories.
Note:
If the Nucleus 2450 controller is running an RTB file from Workbench release 3.14.2 or
later the preferred upgrade process is to use RollCall update and this is described in
section 9.4. The preferred upgrade method updates the controller software, firmware,
RollCall Command Set files and Webcontent files from a single zip file.
Note:
If Workbench is installed in the default location on a 64 bit Windows computer then it will be
located in the “Program Files (x86)” directory.
