Uploading SocketServer with PortVision DX

3.7. Uploading SocketServer with PortVision DX
Use this section to upload a newer version of SocketServer on the ICDM-RX/TCP using PortVision DX.
Technical Support recommends updating SocketServer before any further configuration to avoid configuration
problems.
You can use this procedure if your ICDM-RX/TCP is connected to the host PC, laptop, or if the ICDM-RX/TCP
resides on the local network segment.
1. Unzip the file to locate the .cmtl file.
2. If necessary, open PortVision DX or use the desktop shortcut.
3. Right-click the ICDM-RX/TCP or ICDM-RX/TCPs for which you want to update, click Advanced > Upload
Firmware, browse to the SocketServer .cmtl file, and then click Open.
If the Detection Type is set to REMOTE, you may want to change it to LOCAL.
4. Click Yes to the Upload Firmware message that warns you that this is a sensitive process. It may take a few
moments for the firmware to upload onto the ICDM-RX/TCP. The ICDM-RX/TCP reboots itself during the
upload process.
5. Click Ok to the advisory message about waiting to use the device until the status reads ON-LINE. In the
next polling cycle, PortVision DX updates displays the new SocketServer version or depending your polling
settings, click the Refresh button.
6. If the upload fails, reset the Bootloader timeout to 60 seconds and then repeat Steps 3 through 5. For
procedures, see Changing the Bootloader Timeout on Page 98.
You are now ready to continue the installation and configuration process.
