Downloading Data - IBM 4560SLX User Manual

Downloading data

The library firmware is resident in flash memory; however, IBM periodically
updates this code. You can find the latest firmware files by searching on "4560SLX"
on the http://www.pc.ibm.com/support IBM Web site. The configuration utility
enables you to remotely download flash image files that contain the updated
firmware.
The download process takes place in two stages. First, the data is downloaded into
RAM and is verified; then, it is programmed into the flash memory.
To download new firmware, complete the following procedure:
1. Establish communications with the library.
2. On the Main screen, select Download.
