Erasing Application Software

To erase the application software:
1. Turn ASMi-52 off.
2. Set all the four sections of IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
3. Turn ASMi-52 on and monitor the ERR and LINK indicators: they must blink

alternately.

4. While ERR and LINK are blinking (within 15 seconds), set sections 3 and 4 of

the DIP switch to OFF.

The IP router application software is erased. During the process of erasing,

the ERR indicator turns on and lights steadily.

If you do not set sections 3 and 4 to OFF within 15 seconds of power-up, IR-IP
ignores the setting of all the four sections to ON and starts normal operation. In this
case, it is recommended to turn ASMi-52 off and then back on.
Alternately, to abort the whole operation, turn ASMi-52 off, return all the four
switches to the desired positions, and then turn ASMi-52 on again.

5. Turn ASMi-52 off, and then return all the four sections of the DIP switch to the

desired positions.

Downloading New Software

After erasing the application software, you can download new software from any
computer that can serve as a TFTP client.
To enable the downloading, IR-IP automatically activates its TFTP server

application with the following factory-default IP parameters:
• IP address:

192.168.205.1

• Subnet mask:

255.255.255.252.

Connect the computer serving as a TFTP client to the IR-IP 10BASE-T connector in
the way as a Telnet host used for preliminary configuration (see the

Performing

Preliminary Configuration

section). The computer IP parameters must be

configured as follows:
• IP address

192.168.205.2

• Subnet mask

255.255.255.252

• Default gateway

192.168.205.1

To download new software:
1. If necessary, turn ASMi-52 off.
2. Set all the four sections of the IR-IP DIP switch to OFF.
3. Turn ASMi-52 on.
4. Connect the computer to the IP router LAN interface (for the 10BaseT version,

verify that the LINK indicator lights steadily) and configure its IP parameters as
explained above.
