Updating Firmware
To display current firmware version information
match the baud rate specified by the configuration switches on the processor
probe. These rate settings are described on the label on the bottom of the
processor probe.
On MS-DOS, you can enter prgflash without any options and you will be
prompted for the serial port and "product to update" option. It will first look
in the current directory for product files, if it does not find any there, it will
check the directory $HP64700\update if the $HP64700 environment variable
is set or \hp64700\update if $HP64700 is not set. You can abort the
interactive prgflash.exe command by pressing <CTRL>c.
Example
To use update the firmware for a PowerPC 603e over com1, you could enter
the following command:
prgflash -v emul_com1 E3477
Prgflash.xxx will print "Flash programming SUCCEEDED" and return 0 if it is
successful; otherwise, it will print "Flash programming FAILED" and return a
nonzero (error).
You can verify the update by displaying the firmware version information.

•
Use telnet or a terminal emulator to access the built-in "terminal
interface" and use the ver command to view the version information
for firmware currently in the HP processor probe.
