Use FTP or SCP to upgrade one cooling unit
Instructions for using FTP. For you to be able to use FTP to upgrade a single cooling unit over the
network:
• The cooling unit must be connected to the network.
• The FTP server must be enabled at the cooling unit.
• The cooling unit must have its TCP/IP settings (System IP, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway
addresses) configured.
To use FTP to upgrade the cooling unit:
1. Open an MS-DOS command prompt window on a computer that is connected to the network. Go
to the directory that contains the firmware upgrade files, and list the files. For the directory
C:\apc, the commands would be those shown in bold:
C:\>cd\apc
C:\apc>dir
Files listed for the cooling unit, for example, might be the following (with xxx representing the
version number of each file):
–apc_hw03_aos_xxx.bin
–apc_hw03_acrp_xxx.bin
2. Open an FTP client session:
C:\apc>ftp
3. Type open and the cooling unit’s IP address, and press ENTER. If the port setting for the FTP
Server (accessible through the Administration tab, Network on the top menu bar, and FTP
Server on the left navigation menu) has changed from its default of 21, you must use the non-
default value in the FTP command.
– For some FTP clients, use a colon to add the port number to the end of the IP address.
– For Windows FTP clients, separate the port number from the IP address by a space. For
example, if the cooling unit’s FTP Server Port setting has been changed from its default of
21, such as to 21000, you would use the following command for a Windows FTP client
transferring a file to the cooling unit with an IP address of 150.250.6.10.
ftp> open 150.250.6.10 21000
4. Log on using the Administrator user name and password. (apc is the default for both.)
5. Upgrade the AOS. In the put command in the following example, xxx is the firmware version
number, with no periods separating the digits:
ftp> bin
ftp> put apc_hw03_aos_xxx.bin
6. When FTP confirms the transfer, type quit to close the session.
7. Wait 20 seconds, and then repeat step 2 through step 5, but in step 5, use the application module
file name instead of the AOS module.
