5.4 Performing the FTP Upload Procedure
To proceed with the firmware update procedure, assumptions are made that:
• The MBT-4000B is connected to a user-supplied, Windows-based PC:
o
The PC serial port is connected to the MBT4000B’s ‘J2 |COMM’ port using
the appropriate adaptive cabling.
o
The PC is running a terminal emulation program (for operation of the
MBT-4000B Serial Interface).
• The latest firmware files have been downloaded or otherwise received from
Comtech EF Data and are available on the User PC in an accessible temporary
folder.
Step Task
1 Double-click FLSHCSAT.EXE
(filename or icon) to execute the
FTP upload utility.
2 From the FLSHCSAT window,
select the pertinent serial port
used for communication between
the User PC and the MBT-4000B
(Item ‘A’ in this example shows
that COM1 has been selected)
3 Do not select a baud rate (Item
‘B’) other than the default selection
of 38400, unless otherwise
instructed by Comtech EF Data
Technical Support.
4 Click [Software Upload] (Item ‘C’)
5 You are prompted to select a file
to upload. Click [Choose File].
Then, from the dialogue window
that opens, use the drop-down list
to select the drive (if needed), and
then navigate to the temporary
folder created earlier. Finally,
double-click on the firmware file
from the window to the left.
