3. Use the software_update <filename> command to update the software where

4. Once the update is complete the system will automatically reboot. Local users will
see the front panel display lock up for ~2 minutes. After this the system will begin
launching the application and local users will see the typical boot process where the
bars repeatedly start off at the top, move to the middle, then bottom, then go out. The
application start up will take ~2 minutes. Once the oscillator lock light is on it should
take about 5 minutes to steer the OCXO on frequency and phase, and enable outputs.
Note: Users can obtain the new software image and software release notes from Symmetricom
ftp://ftp.timing.com/pub/ATS-6511. Refer to the software release notes for specific instructions
related to a particular revision of software. If the software update is not applied after transferring
the image to the unit and the unit is power cycled users will need to upload the .iso file again in
order to update the system software.
Warning: Users upgrading from software versions prior to Version 3.9.X will NOT be able to
use this command to update the software. This will require replacing the front panel flash card.
