Erasing Application Software

	To erase the application software:
	1.	Turn RIC-E1 off.
	2.	Set all the four sections of IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
	3.	Turn RIC-E1 on and monitor the IP router ERR indicator: it must turn on and
		start blinking.
	4.	While the ERR indicator is blinking (within 15 seconds), set sections 3 and 4 of
		the DIP switch to OFF.
		When the ERR indicator stops blinking and lights steadily, the IP router
		configuration becomes erased.
Note
	If you do not set sections 3 and 4 to OFF within 15 seconds of power-up, IR-IP
	ignores the setting of all the four sections to ON and starts normal operation. In this
	case, it is recommended to turn RIC-E1 off and then back on.
	Alternately, to abort the whole operation, turn RIC-E1 off, return all the four
	switches to the desired positions, and then turn RIC-E1 on again.
	5.	Turn RIC-E1 off, and the return all the four sections of the DIP switch to the
		desired positions.

Downloading New Software

After erasing the application software, you can download new software from any computer that can serve as a TFTP client.

To enable the downloading, IR-IP automatically activates its TFTP server application with the following factory-default IP parameters:

• IP address: 192.168.205.1

•Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252.

Connect the computer serving as a TFTP client to the IR-IP 10BASE-T connector in the way as a Telnet host used for preliminary configuration (see the Performing Preliminary Configuration section). The computer IP parameters must be configured as follows:

•	IP address	192.168.205.2
•	Subnet mask	255.255.255.252
•	Default gateway	192.168.205.1

To download new software:

1.If necessary, turn RIC-E1 off.

2.Set all the four sections of the IR-IP DIP switch to OFF.

3.Turn RIC-E1 on and monitor the ERR indicator: it must start flashing.

4.Connect the computer to the IP router LAN interface and configure its IP parameters as explained above.

5.Run a standard TFTP client application on the Telnet host, and download the appropriate software file.

If the download is successful, IR-IP starts using the new software. If the downloading fails, repeat the download process.
