B.3 Getting Started
Before initiating the flash update process, the system administrator must check that
there are no active users on the ConsoleServer 3200 by using the CONNECTIONS
command. If there are any users logged in, they should be notified to log out
immediately or forcibly logged out by using the FORCELOGOUT command.
B.3.1 Communications Settings
The communications settings are slightly different for the serial flash update than for the
normal operation mode. The baud rate, date bits, parity, and stop bits all remain the
same between modes, but the flow control changes. In the flash update mode, the flow
control changes to hardware flow control (RTS/CTS). Once the system returns to
normal operating mode, software flow control (XON/XOFF) is used.
B.4 Update over Direct Serial Connection
The terminal or computer that will be used for the flash update must be connected to the
control card port “A”. All users must be logged out. The system administrator must log
in before beginning the update. Commands that the sys admin should enter and text
returned by the ConsoleServer 3200 are in Lucida Console font. All commands
should be followed by <ENTER>.

initiate the flash update process. The ConsoleServer 3200 will ask the system
administrator if he is sure by displaying the prompt START SYSTEM UPDATE, ARE
YOU SURE? (PLEASE TYPE OUT YES) YES OR NO: NO>. If the system
administrator wants to proceed with the update, he should type out YES completely and
press <ENTER>. Otherwise, NO or just N and <ENTER> will exit the process.
