Software Update Menu
The Software Update menu is used to update the software on the DES-5200.
Software can be updated using either XMODEM or TFTP.
XMODEM requires a direct physical connection between a PC and the DES-
5200.
TFTP requires a TFTP server and that you know the Internet Protocol (IP) address
of the server and the complete path and filename. TFTP can be done over the
network or from a remote location.
