2.12.2 Updating Using Xmodem

The Xmodem upgrade method requires a direct connection between the AP
and a computer using a null modem serial cable and using software like
HyperTerminal for Windows 9x. Xmodem supports file transfers between
terminal emulation programs and the AP UI.

Xmodem transfers require more time than TFTP transfers.

To update the AP configuration:

1. Copy the configuration file AP_CFG.TXT to the computer hard disk that

runs a terminal emulation program.

2. Attach a null modem serial cable from the AP to the computer serial port.

3. On the computer, start the communication program.

4. Name the session Spectrum24 AP and select

OK

.

The procedure described below is for Windows 9x.
