Configuring the PSFR-CP41

Reboot

The reboot function restarts the PSFR-CP41. This will cause selected configu-
ration options to take effect.

This will result in all current operations being interrupted. Do not reboot
the unit during normal operation.

Download Firmware

The PSFR-CP41 uses a serial connection using the XMODEM protocol to
update the firmware. In order to update the firmware the PSFR-CP41 must be
connected to a terminal emulation program supporting XMODEM transfers.
This menu item does not appear when accessing the configuration menus
through telnet.

From the main menu, the user must select the ”Download a new revision of the
Firmware” command to start the download procedure.

To download firmware:

Once the message ”Downloading” appears in the emulator utility:

1. Use the Transfer(Send File option in the terminal emulator utility.

2. Select the location of the firmware. Use the ”Browse” button, if you need

help finding it.

3. Make sure you select XMODEM as the protocol.

4. Press the ”Send” button.

5. The firmware will begin to download.

When the download is complete, the system verifies that the firmware image
was successfully written to the FLASH memory and then reboots the PSFR-
CP41. Upon reboot, the PSFR-CP41 detects that there is a newly downloaded
firmware image and copies that image to the boot sector of the FLASH and then
boots with that image. At that point the PSFR-CP41 is using the new firmware
image.
