Step 5c: T1 Access Module Code Download
Overview
Any MICOM T1 Access Module may have code downloaded to it as an async
data stream from any point in the network.
The following procedure is for downloading MICOM T1 Access Module
software from a PC using a communications package (such as PROCOMM
PLUS or MICOM's FlashDLD terminal emulation software) and connected to
any async channel in the MICOM network. This download procedure does
not allow for downloading software to T1 Access Modules in operation.
Notes:
D
During a code download, the network acts as a data pipe and does not
look at the contents of the transferred file. Only the destination download
facility interprets the download file (which may be considerably different for
the different devices).
D
MICOM’s FlashDLD program is designed only for downloading
software to Flash EPROM on MICOM products. No other uses for
FlashDLD are supported.
D
T1 Access Module code download requires MICOM System Software
release 4.3 or later.
When to Use
Before you perform this procedure, you should have already performed the
following steps:
1. Configure the download parameters
2a. Erase the flash image on the T1 Access Module to which you will be
downloading code
3. Install FlashDLD (or another communications software package)
4. Configure FlashDLD (or another communications software package)
Procedure: T1 Access Module Code Download
1. Configure modems. For modems attached directly to units, issue the
following command string to the modem through an ASCII terminal:
AT&FE0Q1S0=2&C1&D0&W
Then press <Enter>. This command sets up the modem for
communication. For more information on modem setup, refer to the
Network Management System Module User's Manual.
2. Enter terminal emulation mode. In FlashDLD, configuring the
FlashDLD parameters and clicking OK" will bring up a terminal
emulation window if FlashDLD and the port on your unit are
configured correctly.
