14.The default baud rate of 9600 should be acceptable under most

conditions. However, to facilitate faster file transfers, the baud rate can
be changed for communications up to the maximum drive rate of 115.2
kb (or the maximum computer rate). To use the default rate, proceed to
step 15.

A. Select “(3) Set Baud rate” by pressing the “3” key.

B. Select the desired baud rate and note instructions displayed on the

screen.

Important:Cycling power to the Firmware Download Module will

reset the baud rate to the default (9600) setting.

C. Select “Exit” from the HyperTerminal File menu. Repeat steps 10

through 13 to change the COM port baud rate to match the rate just
selected.

15.Select “(1) Display Drive information” by pressing the “1” key. This will

cause the drive to display information about the current firmware
versions of both the microprocessor and the Digital Signal Processor
(DSP).

The screen will display Firmware Revision ID for the microprocessor
(which runs most of the features), the DSP Main Block program (runs
the majority of drive functions) and DSP Boot Block (controls the DSP).
The program you download may or may not have a change to the DSP
Main Block (covered later in this procedure).

Record this data in step 9 on page 4, then compare the data. If the two
DSP Main Block revision levels are different, be aware that further
actions will be required in step 19 on page 10.
