User Manual
In order for your RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot radio to communicate with other
RLXIB-IESC devices, all radios on the network must use the same firmware
version.
To change the firmware version of the radio:
1 Start RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot Browser.
2 Open the Operations menu, and then choose Update Firmware.
3 Enter the password for the radio. This is the same password you use to log
into the radio from the Radio Configuration / Diagnostic Utility (page 31).
4 Click the Browse button to locate the Image File (firmware version) to update.
Both versions of firmware are available both on the CD that came with in the
box with the radio, and at our web site at www.prosoft-technology.com
5 Click Update to begin copying the new firmware to the radio. Do not
disconnect the cable or turn off power to the radio during this operation.
5.3.4 Start Ping Session
A Ping Session allows you to run traffic over the radio network between any two
computers running the IH Browser. With it the user can monitor their network
over time.
To start the ping session, enable "Show Ping Stations" on the View menu, and
then highlight one of the other computers visible in the IH Browser. The session
then starts automatically and the Ping Results dialog box opens.
This dialog box displays statistics on the minimum, maximum and average
latency between two points on the network.
