Chapter 5: Installing/Updating Emulator Firmware
Updating the firmware using a PC
Step 3: Run "progflash" to update emulator
firmware
• Enter the following command:
PROGFLAS
The PROGFLAS command downloads code from files on the host computer into
Flash EPROM memory in the HP 64700. The full syntax is:
PROGFLAS [-V] [EMUL_NAME] [PRODUCT]
The -V option means "verbose". It causes progress status messages to be displayed
during operation.
The EMUL_NAME option is the logical emulator name as specified in the
\HP64700\TABLES\64700TAB file (example EMUL_COM1).
The PRODUCT option names the product whose firmware is to be updated
(example 64780).
If you enter the PROGFLAS command without options, it begins an interactive
session. You can abort the interactive PROGFLAS session by pressing <CTRL>c.
PROGFLAS will return 0 if it is successful; otherwise, it will return a nonzero
(error) and a message will be written on the standard error output.
You can verify the update by displaying the firmware version information.
