9.4 Nucleus2 2463 & Nucleus 2450: Upgrade With RollCall
The Nucleus router control module software, firmware, RollCall and web content files can be
upgraded using the RollCall Control Panel Java applet. The upgrade package is supplied by
Snell in the form of a zip file (Workbench version 3.14.2 or later is required, see the RollCall
Pre-requisites in the following note).
This is the preferred upgrade method for the Nucleus2 2463 and Nucleus 2450 router control
modules.
The upgrade software packages contain the following files:
• .RTB file - the Nucleus controller operating system
• FPGA file - the Nucleus firmware
• RollCall Command Set files - the files that allow RollCall to connect to the Nucleus
controller
• Web content files - the files that allow a web browser to connect to the Nucleus
controller
RollCall Update Pre-requisites:
• Working network connection to the Nucleus router control module(s).
• Java must be installed on the computer. If Java isn’t installed RollCall will display a
link to download and install Java from.
• RollCall must be enabled on the Nucleus controller(s).
RollCall is enabled by default, to check:
• Nucleus2 2463, see section 9.5.7
or
• Nucleus 2450, see section 9.6.3
• The Nucleus controller must have the RollCall Command Set and Webcontent files
from Workbench version 3.14.2 or later installed.
• Nucleus2 2463, see section 10.2.4
or
• Nucleus 2450, see section 10.5
• The Nucleus controller must be running an RTB file from Workbench version 3.14.2
or later. If the Nucleus controller is running an earlier version of the RTB the
controller must be updated. Once updated RollCall update can be used to update
the rest of the files now and in the future.
• Nucleus2 2463 - use Pbak Deploy, see section 10.2.1.
or
• Nucleus 2450 - use FTP or Pbak Deploy, see section 10.3.2.
