To upgrade the firmware for a Platinum module, follow these steps:
Download the firmware upgrade to the PC where the upgrade procedure will be
performed. You can check for the most current firmware upgrades at the Imagine
Communications Customer Support website.
We recommend that you download the upgrade to <drive>\Leitch\RtrWrks\ bin32\Firmware
(or if you have NAV installed, to C:\Program Files\ Harris\ RtrWrks\ bin32\ Firmware), as this
is the location where RouterMapper first looks for firmware upgrade files.
Perform a Poll on the selected Platinum frame to obtain the latest detected modules and
firmware versions.
At the main window, double-click the name of the frame that contains the modules you
want to upgrade, and then select the Firmware tab.
From the selected matrix list, click on the modules you want to upgrade. Multiple modules
may be selected using standard Windows selection techniques (hold down the <Shift> or
<Ctrl> keys to select multiple modules). A quick way to determine the installed firmware
version is to "hover" the mouse over the module icon to the right of the module name.
Figure 7-1 Selected Matrix List
Right-click the mouse to bring up the pop-up menu, and then click Assign. The selected
module names will appear in the firmware upgrade list.
Notice that in the firmware upgrade list, the slot location and name of the module appear,
as well as the installed firmware version of that module and the version number for any
known upgrades.
Highlight the board you want to upgrade (if you have banks of the same boards you may
highlight all of them at the same time), right-click, and then select the menu option
"Change Firmware."
