Recovering the flash image
This procedure explains how to recover the flash
image of a Network Station by reading from a
recovery CompactFlash card. You need a
CompactFlash card with a series 2800 (machine
type 8364) flash image to complete this
procedure. See "Creating a recovery
CompactFlash card" on page 25 to create a
recovery CompactFlash card.
1. Complete the procedure, "Removing the logic
unit to install parts" on page 18 before
continuing.
2. Insert the CompactFlash card into the
CompactFlash connector (see "Installing an
optional CompactFlash card" on page 19).
3. Move the jumpers into configuration 2 .
Note: All systems ship with jumpers installed
in configuration 1 .
4. Power on the Network Station.
This requires you to reconnect the power
cable to the logic unit.
5. When the flash image has been re-flashed, the
LED will flash green.
If the system LED is amber, or flashes amber,
the flash image cannot be re-flashed. Try a
different CompactFlash card with the series
2800 (machine type 8364) flash image stored
on it, or recreate the recovery CompactFlash
card (see "Creating a recovery CompactFlash
card" on page 25) and then repeat this
procedure. If you are still unable to recover
the flash image, replace the logic unit (see
"Replacing the logic unit" on page 9).
6. Power off the system.
7. Remove the CompactFlash card from the
connector.
8. Move the jumpers back into the default
configuration 1 .
If you do not move jumpers back into
configuration 1 , your Network Station may
not function properly.
9. See "Reassembling the Network Station" on
page 18.
