SNC 5100

Updating Firmware and Configurations

Although the ADIC Management Console is the simplest and most efficient tool for updating firmware and saving/loading configurations, you can use the service terminal as an alternate method to perform these operations.

For more information, see the ADIC Management Console User Guide.

The ADIC Management Console service port supports Zmodem file transfers. The procedures below are specific for using the HyperTerminal program on the service terminal to transfer files. Other terminal emulation programs operate in a similar fashion.

The Zmodem send and receive functions in some terminal emulation programs automatically issue the command string “rz” before sending a file and the command string “sz” before receiving a file. However, even if the program you are using automatically sends the “rz” command, manually issuing the command string “rz” before starting the transfer has no negative effect on the transfer.

Updating SNC 5100 Firmware

Step 1.

From the Hyper Terminal window, at the SN60023 > command

 

prompt, type rz and then press the Enter key.

Step 2.

From the HyperTerminal window select Transfer and Send

 

File.

Step 3.

From the Send File dialog enter the path and filename where the

 

firmware file is located or click the Browse button and navigate to

 

it.

Step 4.

In the Protocol field, select Zmodem and click the Send button.

Step 5.

It will take several minutes for the file to be transferred. The

 

Zmodem file send dialog will display the current status and it will

 

close automatically when the file transfer has completed.

Step 6.

Wait for the Firmware Update Complete status message to be

 

displayed on the service terminal indicating successful completion.

Step 7.

Reboot the SNC 5100 for the update to take effect.

 

For more information, see the "reboot" command on page 151.
