D-4 Upgrading Software
To display the version of the TA code, from the manager command prompt, issue the following
commands:
1. Type %TA% 1 60 and press enter twice.
#00:ERROR> is displayed on the screen.
2. Enter #01:ATE1
#01:OK is displayed on the screen.
3. Enter #01:ATVER
The current version of the TA code is displayed.
The number 60 following the command is the time out in seconds for the unit to return back to the
command prompt. If no time out is speciļ¬ed, the unit stays connected to the TA until it is
power-cycled or reset.
To upgrade the TA code, follow these steps:
1. Load the packet driver at the appropriate interrupt on your PC.
Depending on the driver you have, you might need to be running in DOS mode rather than
Windows.
2. If your router is connected to a hub, disconnect it and connect it directly to the PC so that
the PC and router are isolated from the rest of your LAN.
Only one router at a time can be updated by using this procedure.
3. Type %TAPROG% 1 from the b uilt-in interface of the r outer to place the internal TA in
the updating state.
4. Run ISDNPROG <newcode.bin> from the DOS command line to send the new software
from the PC to the router.
A series of dots are displayed on the screen as the data is downloaded to the router. Wait until
the PC reports that the download is complete.
5. Turn off the power to the router and turn it back on again.
