As shown in the picture above, a new firmware file “eddy-fs-20a.bin” has been created. Now you have to upload the

firmware image to Eddy via Web or FTP, save it to Eddy’s flash memory, and reset Eddy. Then Eddy will run with

uploaded firmware settings.

5.2 Firmware update via FTP server

Upload created firmware file to Eddy and save it in Flash Memory.

Firmware upgrade can be carried out by 1) through a FTP, 2) through a Web browser and 3) through a bootload.

Upgrading firmware procedures through a Web browser is described in “Eddy-Serial-User_Guide”. And upgrading

firmware procedures through bootload is described in “9.1 System Recovery” of this manual.

This chapter will introduce upload method using a FTP.

On Windows, FTP can be used in cmd(command prompt) to carry out upload process.

Upload the created firmware eddy-fs-20a.bin to the /tmp directory of Eddy, using an FTP. (See Chapter 4.4 for more

information)
