Uploading SocketServer to Multiple DeviceMasters

If an older version of the NS-Link driver for Windows (before v9.xx) has been
installed, make sure that the driver is disabled through the Device Manager before
uploading SocketServer.

You can use this procedure if your DeviceMaster is connected to the host PC,
laptop, or if the DeviceMaster resides on the local network segment.

1.

If you have not done so, install PortVision DX (

Installing PortVision DX

on

Page 37) and Scan the network.

2.

Shift-click the multiple DeviceMasters on the Main screen that you want to
update and use one of the following methods:

Click the Upload button.

Right-click and then click Advanced > Upload Firmware.

Click Advanced >Upload Firmware in the Manage menu.

3.

Browse, click the firmware (.cmtl) file, Open (Please locate the new firmware),
and then click Yes (Upload Firmware).

It may take a few moments for the firmware to upload onto the DeviceMaster.
The DeviceMaster reboots itself during the upload process.

4.

Click Ok to the advisory message about waiting to use the device until the
status reads ON-LINE.

In the next polling cycle, PortVision DX updates the Device List pane and displays
the new firmware version.
