MBT-5000 L-Band Up/Down Converter System
Upgrading Firmware
Type "put FW-0000098X_MBT_#_#_#.bin bulk:" (where "X"' denotes the revision letter,
and "#_#_#" is the firmware version number) at the Command-line prompt, without
quotes, to begin the file transfer.
Wait for approximately one minute while the transfer takes place. Once the file
transfers, Command-line displays the upload result, similar to:
200 Port command okay
150 Opening data connection.
226 File received OK – XXXXXXX bytes in XX.XXX sec
ftp: XXXXXXX bytes sent in XX.XXSeconds XXX.XXXKbytes/sec.
As the upgrade process continues, the converter front panel displays:
Type "bye" to terminate the FTP session, and then close the Command-line window.
3) Use the converter front panel menus, the MBT-5000 HTTP Interface 'Status | Status' page,
or issue the Serial Remote Interface <0/SWR? or <0/FRW? query as shown previously to
verify that the PC-to-Unit FTP file transfer was successful.
4) Use the converter front panel menus or the the MBT-5000 HTTP Interface to select the
desired firmware image to boot from:
A. Using the front panel menus: To select the desired Firmware Image, be sure you are first
in LOCAL mode (SELECT: Config  Remote  Local). Then, go to the SELECT: Utility 
Firmware  Select branch. Use the ◄ ► arrow keys to select the Next Reboot Image
as #1 or #2. Press ENTER when done.
B. Using the MBT-5000 HTTP Interface 'Config | Utility' page: Use the drop-down list to
select the Next Reboot Image as 1 or 2. Click [Submit] to save.
5) Cycle power to reboot the MBT-5000:
A. On the MBT-5000 rear panel: Turn off/disconnect the power source.
The destination "bulk" must be all lower-case.
In the event you receive the "Connection closed by remote host." message,
wait another minute before continuing. The firmware upload sometimes
takes longer than the FTP client allows.
