Upgrading the Card Firmware
During the upgrade process, the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card
is inaccessible, but restarts automatically within a minute after
completing the upgrade.
To upgrade the ConnectUPS-X or ConnectUPS-BD firmware,
use the following steps:
1. Locate a networked PC with Microsoft Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP.
2. Copy the supplied Firmware Upgrade Utility
(upgrade100.exe) program to the PC.
3. Run the Upgrade Utility from Microsoft Windows by
selecting
Start, Run, and then entering the path and
filename upgrade100.exe.
4. Assuming that the network (TCP/IP) connection for
the PC can reach the card needing the firmware
upgrade, select
Discover which instructs the utility to
attempt to find all reachable 10/100 ConnectUPS
Web/SNMP Cards on the network. Any cards that are
found are displayed in the table.
Discover searches only the current subnet. To upgrade
a card that is reachable, but not on the subnet, click
the
Add button and provide the requested information.
5. Activate the checkbox by the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP
Card(s) to be upgraded (up to four cards at a time
under most network conditions).
