UPGRADE

A.1 Introduction

The MENCAP 50 is enabled to receive an upgrade via Trivial File Transfer Protocol
(TFTP) transmission. Comtech EF Data recommends using the Solarwinds TFTP server
application (available at

http://support.solarwinds.net/updates/SelectProgramFree.cfm

)

for upgrading the product.

NOTE

The user will be instructed whether to select

Application or FPGA

code in the download instructions provided by CEFD when new code is
provided.




Once the TFTP server is enabled and the new file (

Application

or

FPGA

) has been

copied to the TFTP server, the procedures outlined in sections A.2 and A.3 may be used
to upgrade the unit.
