3.1 Firmware Overview
Make sure to operate the LPOD-R with its latest available firmware.
Comtech EF Data's LPOD-R family of Outdoor Amplifiers / Block Up Converters
(BUCs) are factory-shipped with the latest version of operating firmware. If you
need to update the firmware, you can apply the update to the LPOD-R without
having to remove it from operation. You may directly acquire the download from
Comtech EF Data's web site (www.comtechefdata.com), or receive the archive
file by e-mail from Comtech EF Data Product Support.
3.1.1
LPOD-R Firmware Update Procedure Summary
1. Download the firmware update archive file to a user-supplied PC. The PC
must be Microsoft Windows® compatible. Comtech EF Data's optional
LPODnet is available for Ethernet-based remote monitor and control
(M&C) of the LPOD-R.
2. Connect a user-supplied Ethernet cable from the User PC to the 'J6 |
COM1' RJ-45 Ethernet port.
The original versions of the LPOD-R PS 1 and PS 1.5 were
shipped with a 19-pin 'J6 | COM1' port. This allowed use of
Comtech EF Data's optional CLC-10 Handheld Terminal M&C
Accessory Kit (CEFD Kit KT-0020518) for optional serial-based
M&C of the LPOD-R PS 1 or PS 1.5.
