3)A data file that tells the upgrade program (XPROMP.EXE) which binary code files (HEX files) to download to the AdderView MATRIX MP and where to put each file. Theoretically this DAT file can be modified so that only certain processors are upgraded but do not do this unless specifically instructed by Adder technical support.

e.g.M216V129.DAT

Like the hex files, the first three digits represent the model number (e.g. 216 represents an AdderView MATRIX MP model 216 with 16 computer ports). The next four digits represent the version number (e.g. V129 equals firmware version 1.29).

To upgrade the AdderView, check that the DAT file designation matches the model that you have. In other words, if you have an AdderView MATRIX MP with 16 computer ports and you want to upgrade to version 1.30 then the DAT file that you need would be named M216V130.DAT. Also check that all the required files are loaded into the same directory on your computer. From that directory run the upgrade file using the following command line.

XPROMP {Dat_file_name}.DAT

Where {Dat_file_name} is the name of the required DAT file

For example, if the name of the required DAT file is M216V129.DAT then use the following command line:

XPROMP M216V129.DAT

IMPORTANT NOTE

The upgrade programs are DOS based to enable compatibility with the widest range of operating systems. They run efficiently on DOS, Windows 3.X, Workgroups, 95, 98, ME and Windows NT. The upgrades will take approximately 10 minutes but vary slightly according to the AdderView model and the speed of the PC. Upgrades run from PCs using Windows 2000 will take very substantially longer due to the way that this operating system handles the DOS programs. The upgrade will be reliable but may take around 3 hours to complete!
