»» Upgrade/Status

This appears when TFTP is used. It displays the status of the transfer
as it happens. Any error or success message will be displayed here.

»» Upgrade/Start Transfer

This activator is used when the configurable items in this menu are
complete.

»» Upgrade/Abort Transfer

Use this activator to cancel any TFTP transfer in progress.

»» Upgrade/TFTP Server

Setting this to

Yes

allows another Express L768 to upgrade its code us-

ing TFTP client. This, in effect, turns on the Express L768 TFTP server
function and allows its code to be “cloned.” Setting to

No

(def) will

deny any request from TFTP clients.

» Utilities/Exit

Write security: 5; Read security: 5

Activating this feature will exit the terminal session from the mainte-
nance port or Telnet. It is equivalent to the key combination

Control L

.

Once started, the Express L768 will prompt for erasing the
flash. When the flash is erased and the upgrade transfer fails,
do not turn off the unit. Retry the transfer until successful.
Otherwise, if power is removed before upgrade has finished,
the upgrade will have to occur from the maintenance port
using XMODEM. If this happens, set a PC terminal
emulation program to 9600 baud and attach to the Express
L768’s maintenance port. Press

Return

to display a simple

terminal menu for upgrading. This menu appears when the
flash code has been erased or is corrupt. The menu will also
appear if you power up with the back panel switch one in the
up position.
