19. Maintenance (Firmware Upgrade)

Upgrade the NetCommander IP ﬁrmware to take advantage of new features. When updated ﬁrmware is available, it will be posted in the Support section of Tripp Lite’s website – www.tripplite.com. If there is no ﬁrmware available on the Tripp Lite website, there is not an updated version available.

From the menu select Firmware Upgrade. The Firmware Upgrade window appears showing the current ﬁrmware version. See the ﬁgure below.

1.Verify the current Firmware Version on your NetCommander IP and match it against the Firmware Upgrade available on Tripp Lite’s website. If they match, you are running the most current ﬁrmware and do not need to upgrade.

2.If you are not running the most current ﬁrmware, locate the Firmware Upgrade File in the Support section of Tripp Lite’s website and save it to the currently selected computer.

3.In the Firmware Upgrade screen of the Web Conﬁguration Interface, click the Browse button and select the Firmware Upgrade File you just saved.

4.Click Start Upgrade. The upgrade starts. On completion, click Reboot. The unit reboots. After about 30 seconds the Login page appears.

Note: If during a ﬁrmware update there is a power failure and you can no longer access the system, you can restore the device ﬁrmware from the Safe mode. See the Restore Device Firmware section on page 16-17 for instructions on how to do this.
