4 When the Cs appear, select Send File from the Transfer list (not shown). The Send
File dialog box opens.
5 Click the browse button and locate the new firmware file (similar to
“W_t006.bin”), select the
1K Xmodem protocol, then click Send. The Xmodem file
send screen opens.
From the Send screen you can monitor the progress. You can safely stop the
transfer without affecting your existing firmware any time during the transfer
until it has been completed. The upload does not overwrite the firmware during
the upload process. It writes the new code into RAM until completed, then copies
the new firmware code to the EEPROM after verification.
Important Make sure that the protocol “1K Xmodem” is selected. The
“1K Xmodem” protocol is preferred because of its superior
error detection (CRC vs. checksum).
