CONFIGURING THE MODULE FOR FIRMWARE UPGRADES

UPGRADE: The UPGRADE jumper is used when firmware upgrades are being done to the
module. For normal operation it should be installed in the RUN position (see NOTE
1). See the Upgrading Firmware section of this manual for more information.
To upgrade the firmware in the module unit pull it out of the frame.
UPGRADE jumper into the UPGRADE position (see NOTE 1). Install the Upgrade
cable provided (located in the vinyl pouch in the front of this manual) onto the SERIAL
header at the card edge. Re-install the module into the frame. Run the upgrade as
described in the Upgrading Firmware section of this manual. Once the upgrade is
complete, remove the module from the frame, move the UPGRADE jumper into the
RUN position, remove the upgrade cable and re-install the module. The module is
now ready for normal operation.
NOTE 1: The Rev (A) boards have incorrect labeling for the RUN / UPGRADE modes. The
jumper labels shown in Figure 4-1 are correct. On Rev (A) boards, for normal RUN
operation set the jumper to the UPGRADE position (as shown on the board label -
away from the front of the module). For UPGRADE operation the jumper must be set
to the RUN position (as shown on the board label - closest to the front of the board).
