Re-Flashing Yur CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Mdem I. Intrductin: Firmware Files, Naming, Versins, and Frmats Make sure t perate the CDM-760 with its latest available firmware. Befre attempting any Ethernet FTP uplad, read the imprtant nte abut cnditinal firmware upgrade requirements. The CDM-760 Advanced High Speed Trunking Mdem is factry-shipped with its latest versin f perating firmware. If yu need t update the mdem firmware, yu may dwnlad the update frm the Cmtech EF Data Web site (www.cmtechefdata.cm). Yu may als receive the firmware update archive file via e-mail frm Cmtech EF Data Prduct Supprt. Abut Firmware Numbers, File Versins, and Frmats: The Cmtech EF Data Web site catalgues its firmware update files by prduct type (e.g., ruter, mdem, etc.), the specific mdel, and ptinal hardware cnfiguratins. The CDM-760 firmware dwnlad hyperlink appears as F0020627x_Vyyy, where x is the revisin letter, and yyy is the firmware versin (e.g., V121 = Versin 1.2.1). The naming and file frmat f the firmware files fr Firmware Versins 1.2.1 and later differ frm the naming and file frmat f the firmware files prvided fr Firmware Versin 1.1.1! See Appendix A. UPDATING VERSION 1.1.1 FIRMWARE in yur user manual fr the instructins fr perfrming a Versin 1.1.1 firmware update. Abut File Archive Frmats: Cmtech EF Data prvides its dwnladable files in tw cmpressed archive frmats: *.exe (self-extracting) and *.zip (cmpressed). Sme firewalls d nt allw the dwnlad f self-extracting *.exe files. Dwnlad the *.zip file instead, and extract the firmware files frm that archive file. Use a file archiving and cmpressin applicatin such as PKZIP fr Windws, WinZip, r ZipCentral fr this task. (PKZIP fr DOS is nt supprted due t file naming cnventins.) Cmtech EF Data des nt prvide this utility prgram. Fr detailed infrmatin n handling archived files, refer t yur utility prgram Help dcumentatin.

II. Prerequisites fr Perfrming the FW Ver. 1.2.1 Ethernet FTP Uplad Prcedure Befre prceeding with the CDM-760 Ethernet FTP Uplad Prcedure, assumptins are made that: Yur CDM-760 is running Firmware Versin 1.2.1 r later. Yu have nted the CDM-760 Ethernet Management IP Address using either the CDM-760 Frnt Panel r the Serial Remte Cntrl Interface. Yu may als use the CDM-760 HTTP Interface Admin Access page t review and recnfigure this IP Address as needed. The mdem remte cntrl is set t Ethernet r Ser+Ethernet cnfirm by viewing the CDM-760 Frnt Panel SELECT: Cnfiguratin Remte screen: Remte Cntrl:Ser+Ethernet Inband:Disable ( ) Yu are using a Windws-based PC running the latest versin f Java, and: The PC Ethernet prt is cnnected t the CDM-760 rear panel J4 MGMT 10/100/1000 BaseT Ethernet prt with a user-supplied hub, switch, r direct Ethernet cable cnnectin. The PC is running a cmpatible Web brwser (fr using the CDM-760 HTTP Interface). The PC serial prt is cnnected t the CDM-760 rear panel J3 REMOTE prt with a standard user serial cable. The PC is running a terminal emulatin prgram (fr using the CDM-760 Serial Interface). Yu have dwnladed (r therwise received frm Cmtech EF Data) the latest available firmware update, and yu have extracted the firmware files int an accessible temprary flder (e.g., C:\CDM760) n the User PC. See Chapter 4. UPDATING FIRMWARE in yur user manual fr further infrmatin abut the required prerequisites and preparatins fr perfrming a Versin 1.2.1 firmware update.

III. Perfrming the Versin 1.2.1 Ethernet FTP Uplad Prcedure Using Windws Cmmand-Line D these steps: The CDM-760 HTTP (Web Server) Interface Admin Upgrade page is under develpment at this time, and may nt be used t update the mdem firmware images. Use Windws Cmmand-line as instructed in this sectin. Typical fr all tasks that fllw type the cmmand withut qutes, and then press Enter t execute. 1. Make nte f the active firmware image that the CDM-760 is running at present: Frm the CDM-760 Frnt Panel, use the arrw keys t view the SELECT: Utility Firmware screen. The tp line f this screen displays the running active image as ActiveImage:1 r ActiveImage:2. The FTP uplad prcedure will verwrite the standby image. 2. Use Windws Cmmand-line t transfer (FTP) the files frm the User PC t the CDM-760. First, click [Start] n the Windws taskbar, and then click the Run... icn (r, depending n Windws OS versins prir t Windws 95, click the MS-DOS Prmpt icn frm the Main Menu). Then: Fr Windws 95 r Windws 98, type cmmand. Fr any Windws OS versins later than Windws 98, type cmd r cmmand. Alternately, frm [Start], select All Prgrams > Accessries > Cmmand Prmpt. 3. Make sure yu are active in a prper wrking flder (directry) created earlier fr this task if nt, type, fr example, cd CDM760. 4. Type "ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the CDM-760 Ethernet Management IP Address). 5. If Cmmand-line prmpts yu fr a user name, ne is nt required. Press Enter t cntinue. 6. The Cmmand-line prmpt changes t ftp>. Type "put F0020627.tar F0020627.tar" at the prmpt (withut qutes) t begin the file transfer. The file transfer prcess takes abut 10 minutes d nt pwer ff the PC r mdem during this time. As the upgrade prcess cntinues, the mdem frnt panel displays: Prgramming MdemApp XXX% Cmplete Lading FPGA XX f XX XXX% Cmplete FLG-CDM760 Revisin 0 3 Re-Flashing Yur CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Mdem
7. Once the file transfers, Cmmand-line displays the uplad result, similar t: 200 Prt cmmand kay 150 Opening data cnnectin fr STOR (192.168.1.1,-9944) 226 File received OK XXXXXXX bytes in XX.XXX sec 001 Flash prgramming Successful!! ftp: XXXXXXX bytes sent in XX.XXSecnds XXX.XXXKbytes/sec. 8. Type "bye" t terminate the FTP sessin, and then clse the Cmmand-line windw. IV. Selecting the Firmware Update fr Operatin and Rebting the Mdem D these steps: 1. Make nte f the current Active Image n the SELECT: Utility Firmware screen: Firmware Images: ActiveImage: 2 Inf Select ( ) Then, n the bttm line, use the arrw keys t select Select. Press ENTER t cntinue: Current Active Image is #2 Next rebt, will use Image: #1 ( ) In rder fr the Image that was just updated t be active the next time yu rebt the mdem, yu must select that firmware image t be the Current Active Image. Use the arrw keys t select 1 r 2. (In this example, Image #1 was updated and is therefre the required chice.) Alternately, n the CDM-760 HTTP Interface Cnfiguratin Utilities page, use the Next Rebt Image drp-dwn list in the Firmware Image Cnfig sectin t select Image1 r Image2, and then click [Submit]: Once yu press ENTER n the frnt panel r click [Submit] frm the CDM-760 HTTP Interface, the mdem verifies the checksums f all the files that are being updated: Calculating checksums n selected Image. Please wait This prcess takes several minutes. D nt turn ff the mdem during this time. When the prcess is cmplete, this message displays: Selected Image has been written. Rebt Mdem r <ENTER> t Cntinue. 2. Rebt the CDM-760 using ne f these methds: Fr a hard rebt Use the rear panel ON/OFF switch (r therwise discnnect the mdem pwer surce), and then recnnent the mdem pwer.

Fr a sft rebt Frm the Firmware Image Cnfig sectin f the CDM-760 HTTP Interface Cnfiguratin Utilities page, click [Rebt Mdem]: Nte that, if bting int a new image and the Tp Card Applicatin has been changed, an additinal step ccurs as the CDM-760 dwnlads t a different flash memry. This additinal uplad takes apprximately tw minutes. 3. Lg back in t the CDM-760 HTTP Interface. Once the mdem rebts, the Web brwser prmpts yu t re-enter the User Name and Passwrd in rder t resume use f the CDM-760 HTTP Interface. V. Verify that the PC-t-Mdem FTP file transfer was successful Using the CDM-760 Frnt Panel After rebt, cnfirm that the Mdem Firmware Versin that displays n the CDM-760 Frnt Panel VFD tp-level screen matches the firmware versin just laded. Yu may als review the SELECT: Utility Firmware Inf Image#1 and Image#2 screens fr detailed firmware infrmatin. Using the CDM-760 HTTP Interface Review the firmware versin n the Hme page, r the Image 1 and Image 2 flder cntents n the Status Firmware page. Using the CDM-760 Serial Interface Execute ne f these remte queries: Abbreviated <0/SWR? (displays firmware versins) Detailed <0/FRW?1 (fr Image 1) r <0/FRW?2 (fr Image 2) (displays cmplete firmware lad infrmatin) The CDM-760 is nw perating with its latest firmware. The firmware update prcess is nw cmplete. FLG-CDM760 Revisin 0 5 Re-Flashing Yur CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Mdem
