Switch. There are several commercially available. Select one that you are
comfortable with and be sure that it can communicate at 38,400 baud.
Configure your terminal program to the following settings:
38,400 Baud
8 Bits
No Parity
1 Stop Bit
No Flow Control
Activate the OSD menu on your Rackmount Console Switch by tapping the
Control key twice. Enter Control twice more to activate the Administrator
Commands screen and then select Administrator Functions.
Use the down arrow key to highlight the menu selection for FLASH Upgrade,
then press Enter.
A menu screen will appear and ask if you wish to continue. You must type
out the word Yes before preceding. Once you have done this, the switch
will go into a standby mode and wait for data from the server. (Note: The
keyboard, video and mouse are disabled during the FLASH upgrade.)
The final step is to send the FLASH file from your terminal program. To do
this, you will need to use the transfer function from whichever program
you are using. Send the FLASH file as a text file. The transfer should be
completed within five minutes.
The Rackmount Console Switch will automatically check the upgrade and
make sure that it is valid. If the switch detects an error, it will abort the
upgrade and retain the original OSD firmware. Otherwise, it will return
the message "Flash Upgrade Successful". If the file read does not validate,
you will be prompted to re-transfer your file.
