Upgrading the Card Firmware

During the upgrade process, the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card is inaccessible, but restarts automatically within a minute after completing the upgrade.

To upgrade the ConnectUPS-X or ConnectUPS-BD firmware, use the following steps:

1.Locate a networked PC with Microsoft Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP.

2.Copy the supplied Firmware Upgrade Utility (upgrade100.exe) program to the PC.

3.Run the Upgrade Utility from Microsoft Windows by selecting Start, Run, and then entering the path and filename upgrade100.exe.

4.Assuming that the network (TCP/IP) connection for the PC can reach the card needing the firmware upgrade, select Discover which instructs the utility to attempt to find all reachable 10/100 ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Cards on the network. Any cards that are found are displayed in the table.

Discover searches only the current subnet. To upgrade a card that is reachable, but not on the subnet, click the Add button and provide the requested information.

5.Activate the checkbox by the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card(s) to be upgraded (up to four cards at a time under most network conditions).
