Configure your terminal program to the following settings:

38,400 Baud

8Bits No Parity 1 Stop Bit

No Flow Control

Activate the OSD menu on your APC KVM Switch by tapping the Control key twice. Enter Control twice more to activate the Administrator Commands screen and then select Administrator Functions.

Use the down arrow key to highlight the menu selection for FLASH Upgrade, then hit Enter.

A menu screen will appear and ask if you wish to continue. You must type out the word ‘Yes’ before proceeding. Once you have done this, the Switch will go into a standby mode and wait for data from the computer. (Note: The keyboard, video and mouse are disabled during the FLASH upgrade.)

The final step is to send the FLASH file from your terminal program. To do this, you will need to use the transfer function of your communications software. Send the FLASH file using the XMODEM protocol. The transfer should be completed within four minutes.

The APC KVM Switch will automatically check the upgrade and make sure that it is valid. If the Switch detects an error it will abort the upgrade and prompt you to re-transfer the file. Otherwise, it will return the message “Flash Upgrade Successful”.
