Overview
Xmodem Requirements
The Controller update software file must be located on a compact disk (CD), hard drive, or file
server accessible by the craft terminal or management computer through a file name or path name.
File transfers are accomplished using Xmodem protocol, which is supported by most terminal
emulation programs, such as Microsoft HyperTerminal. Using an RS-232 management session, the
operator sends a CLI “load xmodem” command to the Access Navigator. The operator then
instructs the terminal program to send the update file. Updating the active Controller will take about
30 minutes.
