CDM-Qx Satellite Modem

Revision 5

Flash Upgrading

MN/CDMQx.IOM

Alternate Method: CMD Prompt: At the command prompt (c:\>) type "MD temp" without quotes (MD stands for make directory). This is the same as creating a new folder from Windows. You should now have a "c:\temp" subdirectory created where c: is the drive letter used in the example.

3.Download the correct firmware file to this temporary folder. (Procedure is Under

Construction.)

Access the download server with the flash firmware data files link,

http://206.223.8.10/linksite/flashupgrades/CDMQx/

About Firmware Numbers, File Versions, and Formats:

The flashable files on the download server are organized by product first, then by firmware number, (make sure you know the correct firmware number; see step 1) version, if applicable, and release date. The base modem bulk firmware for the CDM-Qx will be F11245*_*_* (where the asterisks show revision, version and date).

The current version firmware release is provided. If applicable, one version prior to the current release is also available. Be sure to identify and download the desired version.

The downloadable files are stored in two formats: *.exe (self extracting) and *.zip (compressed).

Some firewalls will not allow the downloading of *.exe files. In this case, download the *.zip file instead.

For additional help with "zipped" file types, refer to "pkzip for windows", "winzip", or "zip central" help files. Pkzip for DOS is not supported due to file naming conventions.

4.Unzip the files in the temporary folder on your PC. At least 3 files should be extracted:

a.FW11245x.bin, where "x" is the revision (bulk image file)

b.QxReleaseNotes_x.pdf, where "x" is the version (release notes)

c.README_X.TXT, where “X” is the version (installation notes)

5.Connect the client PC to the CDM-Qx modem 10/100 Ethernet M&C via a hub or a switch, or directly to a PC with a crossover cable.

Base modem firmware can be loaded via the Ethernet M&C port.
