ASM-60Installation and Operation Manual

Appendix C IR-IP Interface Module

 

 

 

 

2.

Set all the four sections of IR-IP DIP switch to ON.

 

3.

Turn the ASM-60 on and monitor the IP router ERR indicator: it must turn on

 

 

and light steadily.

 

 

4.

While the ERR indicator is lit (within 15 seconds), set sections 3 and 4 of IR-IP

 

 

DIP switch to OFF.

 

 

 

The IP router application software is erased.

 

Note

 

 

 

If you do not set sections 3 and 4 to OFF within 15 seconds of power-up, IR-IP

 

 

ignores the setting of all the four sections to ON and starts normal operation. In this

 

case, it is recommended to turn ASM-60 off and then back on.

 

Alternately, to abort the whole operation, turn ASM-60 off, return all the four

 

switches to the desired positions, and then turn ASM-60 on again.

 

 

 

 

5.

Turn ASM-60 off, and the return all the four sections of the DIP switch to the

 

 

desired positions.

 

Downloading New Software

After erasing the application software, you can download new software from any computer that can serve as a TFTP client.

To enable the downloading, IR-IP automatically activates its TFTP server application with the following factory-default IP parameters:

IP address:

192.168.205.1

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252.

Connect the computer serving as a TFTP client to the IR-IP 10BASE-T connector in the way as a Telnet host used for preliminary configuration (see the Performing Preliminary Configuration section). The computer IP parameters must be configured as follows:

IP address

192.168.205.2

Subnet mask

255.255.255.252

Default gateway

192.168.205.1

To download new software:

1.If necessary, turn ASM-60 off.

2.Set all the four sections of the IR-IP DIP switch to OFF.

3.Turn ASM-60 on and monitor the ERR indicator: it must start flashing.

4.Connect the computer to the IP router LAN interface and configure its IP parameters as explained above.

5.Run a standard TFTP client application on the Telnet host, and download the appropriate software file.

If the download is successful, IR-IP starts using the new software. If the downloading fails, repeat the download process.
