Total Access 600R User Interface Guide (UIG)

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>TRANSFER METHOD

Updates firmware when Total Access 600R enhancements are released. Two transfer methods are available for use in updating the Total Access 600R.

The two methods for upgrading are XMODEM and TFTP. TFTP requires a TFTP server running on the network. The Total Access 600R starts a TFTP client function which gets the upgrade code from the TFTP server. Selecting XMO- DEM will load the upgrade code through the CRAFT port using any PC terminal emulator with xmodem capability.

The factory default is TFTP.

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>TFTP SERVER ADDRESS

This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the IP address or domain name (if DNS is configured) of the TFTP server. The factory default is no entry in the TFTP SERVER ADDRESS field.

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>TFTP SERVER FILENAME

This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the case-sensitive file name which contains the upgrade code. The factory default is no entry in the TFTP SERVER FILENAME field.

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>TRANSFER STATUS

This appears when TFTP is used. It displays the status of the transfer as it happens. Any error or success message will be displayed here.

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>START TRANSFER

This activator is used when the configurable items in this menu are complete.

Before using START TRANSFER, the Total Access 600R should have a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway (if required).

SYSTEM UTILITY>UPGRADE FIRMWARE>ABORT TRANSFER

Use this activator to cancel any TFTP transfer in progress.

SYSTEM UTILITY>CONFIG TRANSFER

SYSTEM UTILITY>CONFIG TRANSFER>TRANSFER METHOD

Sends a file containing the Total Access 600R configuration to a PC connected to the CRAFT port using XMODEM protocol or to a file on a TFTP server using the TFTP protocol.

CONFIG TRANSFER also lets you save the Total Access 600R configuration as a backup file, so you can use the same configuration with multiple Total Access 600R units. In addition, CONFIG TRANSFER can retrieve a configuration file from a TFTP server.
