Firmware Upload
• Upgrade Image File
o
First, click [Browse] to locate and select the firmware file that was first acquired by
archive file download from the Comtech EF Data Web site (or obtained from Comtech
EF Data Customer Support via e-mail or on CD), and then extracted and stored on the
User PC in a temporary folder (directory).
o
Then, click [Upload] to complete the upgrade process. The file will first upload to the
controller’s flash memory; the firmware upgrade bulk image file then loads into the non-
active image – that is, the image that is not currently selected as the active firmware
image (as it appears on the Utility | Boot Slot page, in the Boot From: field).
