Select TFTP IP Server and enter the IP address of the TFTP server

 

 

Select TFTP File Name and enter the name of the software file (for

Select Transfer Command to start downloading file to ASMi-52.

 

 

ASMi-52 automatically erases the backup partition. Once downloading is

 

 

completed, ASMi-52 saves the new release as an active partition, the

 

 

former active partition becomes the backup.

 

 

Once downloading is complete, ASMi-52 decompresses the release file,

 

 

displaying the following message:

 

 

 

Final process download. Reset

 

 

After the decompression, ASMi-52 saves the new release as an active

 

 

partition, the former active partition becomes backup. Then the unit resets

 

 

itself. This causes the new software to be loaded into the modem's RAM.

 

 

Installing a New Software Release via XMODEM

 

Notes

 

 

 

 

 

Installation of the new software releases via XMODEM is not possible over

 

 

Telnet.

 

 

 

To minimize the software downloading time, it is recommended to configure the

 

 

CONTROL port to the highest available data rate, see Changing the Control

 

 

Port Data Rate section above.

 

 

 

To install a new software release via XMODEM:

 

 

1. From the SW & File Transfer menu, select XMODEM (Main menu > File

 

Utilities > SW & File Transfer > SW Download > XMODEM).

ASMi-52 responds with the following string:
