Firmware Upgrade Procedure

Chapter 8 Firmware Upgrade Procedure

Before beginning, make sure that you have adequate TCP access to the unit. When upgrading through the wireless, ensure that your link is not experiencing any packet lost or packet corruption. If the link is experiencing packet lost or corruption, we recommend doing the upgrade via the Ethernet port at SU side instead.

The following example uses MS windows operating system.

After downloading the correct firmware and properly extracting it to a folder on your C or local drive, execute the following:

1.From a command or DOS prompt, Open a telnet session to the unit. Example: C:>telnet 192.168.100.100

(This sample uses the default IP address, you must use the correct IP address of your SU.)

2.At the login enter your password. The default password is trango.

3.Enable the tftp demon with the tftpd command

Example: #>tftpd on

4.Open a second MS-DOS window, access the correct folder where the firmware files where extracted to. Example: C:> cd Trango Firmware

C:\Trango Firmware>_

5.Using windows TFTP utility, upload the firmware to the radio.

Example: C:\Trango Firmware>tftp 192.168.100.100 put FSU58_2p0r3D05120701.s19

6.A “transfer success” will displayed. Return to the telnet session and verified the successful transfer of the file with the tftpd command

Example: #> tftpd

[Tftpd] listen [File Name] FSU58_2P0r3D05120701.S19 [File Length] 564606 bytes [File Checksum] 73

Success.

 Note: After the upload, the radio will activate the firmware automatically

7.To verified if the upgrade was successful, run the ver command and validate the new version. Example: #>ver

[Hardware Version] 5580

[MVC Version] 3893mvc_4p5_050913.arm [Firmware Version] FSU 2p0r3D05120701 Success.
