C-8 Reloading the Firmware
Downloading through the Serial Port (All
Models Except Pony Print Server Plus)
The print server can be downloaded from a PC connected to
the serial port via the XMODEM protocol. To do this, first
make sure that you have Switch 1 in Console mode (OFF)
and that the PC can communicate successfully with the print
server using terminal emulation mode (for example, through
a program like QLII or PCTERM). Then type in the
following commands in response to the Local> prompt:
SET LOAD ENABLE
Type EXIT to exit console mode. The print server will then
reboot. You will get a series of messages displayed on the
terminal; press RETURN at any time and then type:
SET LOAD XMODEM
in response to the Boot> prompt. You will get the message
"You may begin your XModem transfer now." Set your PC
terminal emulation program to send a file using the
XMODEM protocol with the file name XJET.BIN. The
print server will then download the XJET.BIN file.
