18 9. Explanation of the Program 1. Forwarding the Information to the FlashMaxII(Z) Download: Download the Data from the PC into the FlashMaxII buffer. Upload: Upload the Data from the FlashMaxII buffer to the PC. Search: Network Connection Test (Same as the FIND icon) Upload Library: Synchronizes the uploaded library from the system with the library in the PC Program. * Run the update immediately after the download Firmware Update: Set up the Network on the FlashMaxII. Then choose the Folder to install the Update. 2. ICON Description 1) OPEN icon opens the SMD Binary 2) SAVE icon saves the SMD Binary onto the PC 3) Select icon selects the Device (Recommended that the Select is used after the Library has been uploaded to the PC.) 4) Selected icon matches the selected device in the PC to the FlashMaxII. 5) Down icon downloads the Data from the PC to the FlashMaxII. 6) Upload icon uploads the FlashMaxII Buffer to the PC. 7) Stop icon stops all running operations. 8) Edit icon opens the Hex Editor on the PC Program 9) Find icon searches for the connected networks. 10) Erase, Blank, Program, Verify, Read, Auto, ID Check, Chksum, AdtChk icons operates the commands on the FlashMaxII from the PC Program. (Network Service option) 18

19 10. Network Settings A. If you connect the FlashMaxII to a switch, router, or hub, use a standard Ethernet cable (straightthrough). If you connect the FlashMaxII to a host PC, use a cross-over Ethernet cable. Additionally, if you connect it to a private network or one-to-one connection rather than the Internet or a router, set the IP address to XXX, and subnet mask to B. Select MAIN MENU -> Network -> Protocol menu. C. Depending on network environment select either DHCP or STATIC. Then wait until the message [IP Renew...] disappears. DHCP: Choose this if an IP address is assigned by a router or DHCP server instead of manually setting the IP addresses. STATIC : Choose this if you manually set the IP addresses. D. Select MAIN MENU -> Network -> IP Config and set the IP addresses E. Depending on the network environment, configure IP/SUBNET MASK/GATEWAY/DNS. Then, wait until the message, [IP Renew...] disappears. In case of DHCP, you can only check the IP configuration assigned by the router or DCHP server but cannot directly make changes. F. Select MAIN MENU -> Network -> Serv Port 19

20 G. Set the network port number and password. The port number is the port number to use when accessing network services from GUI on host PC to FlashMaxII. (Default port number is 8678). Except the port numbers that is already used by Windows operating system (135, 139, 445, 1031, and 3389), you can use 1 through Password is the security password used when accessing from GUI on host PC to FlashMaxII. You can choose up to seven alphanumeric characters between 0 ~ 9 and A ~ Z. When you check the set value, you can move to the right end of the password. H. Select MAIN MENU -> Network -> Net Config I. Turns on and off of the Network Service. When connecting from the GUI to FlashMaxII it must always be set to On. J. GUI Main Menu -> Option -> General Config -> Network Tab K. Input the network information from the FlashMaxII 20

21 L. GUI Main Menu-> Transfer -> Find After clicking on Find, the using procedure is the same as the existing GUI. 21

22 M. GUI Main Menu-> Transfer -> USB Mode N. Select NETWORK then click OK 11. Firmware Upgrade 11.1 Firmware Upgrade Using USB Memory Stick A. Uncompress the firmware file and copy it to a USB Memory Stick Ex) In this example, a folder, MM6_1009_15A, is created, and the uncompressed files (mm6.exe and mm6.dat) are saved under the folder. 22

23 B. Connect the USB Memory Stick to FlashMaxII. Ex) It is recognized as E: drive. C. Select Main Menu -> Config -> FW Update -> E:/MM6_1009_15A, and choose mm6.exe. 23

24 D. Wait until FlashMaxII reboots. E. Check Main Menu -> Config -> Ver Info and ensure the firmware is correctly updated 11.2 Firmware Update Using Network A. Main Menu of GUI on the host PC -> Transfer ->. 24
