port
To update the firmware via a connection to the
RS-232 serial port, you will need
• a host computer with a terminal emulation
program such as HyperTerminal in Windows
• binary information file ("...".ima) available from
technical support or on our website (refer to
Contact ATTO Technology, Inc.
• a null modem serial cable with a DB-9 connector
To update firmware
1
Connect to Diamond Storage Array services via
the RS-232 port (refer to
page 17). You should now be in the Command
Line Interface mode.
2
Copy the latest Diamond Storage Array image
file ("...".ima) onto the host computer.
3
Type ZModem Receive at the Ready prompt.
The terminal program on the host should be in
Zmodem only mode, with no other parameters.
Updating firmware using the optional Ethernet card
To update the firmware via the optional Ethernet
management services card, you will need
• the optional Ethernet management services
card installed in your array
• a host computer with a network card or a
network-connected device such as a hub
• binary information file ("...".ima) available from
