NOTE: The pass-thru module boot code firmware image is usually named 10GPTHRU- w.x.y.z_FW.bin, where w.x.y.z is the firmware version number.

1.Using the null modem mini-USB to DB-9 cable, connect the console port of the pass-thru module to the serial port of a computer that supports XModem/1K XModem.

2.Start HyperTerminal (part of Microsoft® Windows® operating system) or equivalent terminal emulation application (depending on the operating system), and set the parameters for terminal emulation console:

3.Power on or reboot the pass-thru module.

4.Hold down the Shift key and press the B key repeatedly during boot up, until the following message appears: "Ready to begin XMODEM file transfer. Press Enter to continue."

5.Repeatedly press the Enter key on the computer that is connected to the console port of the pass-thru module. When the console port is successfully communicating with the computer, indicating readiness for image transfer, continuous Cs appear.

6.Be sure that the new pass-thru module boot code firmware file is available on the computer. This file can be downloaded from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

7.Select <Transfer-Send File> from the menu, and choose the following options in the Send File window:

Filename: C:\#*!<unassigned_variable!*#

Protocol: 1K XMODEM

The Send File window displays the progress of the file transfer. The file transfer might take up to 7 minutes.

NOTE: Although slower, XModem also works if 1K XModem is not used.

After completing the transfer, the new image automatically boots.
