CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module

Revision 4

Appendix E

MN/CDM570L.IOM

Note: The c: is the drive letter used in this example. Any valid writable drive letter can be used.

CMD Prompt: At the command prompt (c:\>) type "MD temp" without quotes
(MD stands for make directory). This is the same as creating a new folder from
Windows. You should now have a "c:\temp" subdirectory created where c: is the
drive letter used in the example.


3. Download the correct firmware file to this temporary folder.

Access the download server with the flash firmware data files link,
http://206.223.8.10/linksite/flashupgrades/CDM570L/

About Firmware Numbers, File Versions, and Formats:

The flashable files on the download server are organized by product first, then by
firmware number, (make sure you know the correct firmware number; see step 1)
version, if applicable, and release date. The base modem bulk firmware for the
CDM-570/570L will be F10805*_*_* (where the asterisks show revision, version
and date).

The current version firmware release is provided. If applicable, one version prior to
the current release is also available. Be sure to identify and download the desired
version.

The downloadable files are stored in two formats: *.exe (self extracting) and *.zip
(compressed).
Some firewalls will not allow the downloading of *.exe files. In this case, download
the *.zip file instead.

For additional help with "zipped" file types, refer to "pkzip for windows", "winzip",
or "zip central" help files. Pkzip for DOS is not supported due to file naming
conventions.


4. Unzip the files in the temporary folder on your PC.

At least 3 files should be extracted:

a. FW10805x.bin, where "x" is the version (bulk image file).
b. FW10805x.txt, where "x" is the version (history notes).
c. README.TXT installation notes


5. Connect the client PC to the CDM-570/570L modem 10/100 Ethernet M&C via a

hub or a switch, or directly to a PC with a crossover cable.

IMPORTANT

Base modem firmware can only be loaded via the Ethernet M&C port. Do not
use the Ethernet Traffic port.
