Update Software

Each 9145 has two flash memory banks that store software:
• The Active Flash Memory holds the software currently in use
• The Inactive Flash Memory holds the new software from a download or the older version of

software

Software is downloaded to the inactive memory to avoid disrupting service. Resetting the 9145
and swapping banks does not affect operation and is transparent to user traffic.

Use the Software Upgrade report and menu screen to check the current version of the firmware
and upgrade it and the remote 9145, if necessary. To access the Software Upgrade Menu and
check the software version, follow these steps:

1. From the Main Menu, type [

7

], "Software Upgrade," and press <Enter>. The Software

Upgrade screen appears.
Note: Line 4 is only present when the remote unit is SBMC Connected 9145.

2. Record the numbers for the Active and Inactive Firmware for both the local and remote

9145s.

3. Access the Canoga Perkins Web site, click Downloads, scroll to the 9145 filename and

compare version numbers listed there with the version numbers you recorded. The
9145 firmware filename is similar to 91450106.zip, where 9145 indicates the module and
0106 indicates the version number.

4. Download the software from the Web site to your local TFTP, FTP, or SFTP server.
