I/O Download of Firmware
Upgrades
It is possible to upgrade the firmware version with new releases by sending a
file to the controller over the network, serial or parallel cable connection.
Customers can download new firmware releases from the internet or can
acquire the files on a CD-ROM. If obtaining the firmware from the internet,
go to www.xes.com and follow the instructions provided.
Use the Document Submission Tool (part of AccXES Client Tools) or Web
Printer Manager Tool to send the firmware upgrade file to the controller. Note
that the Web PMT includes a useful Upload File button on the "Upload File"
page to assist in sending the new firmware upgrade to the controller.
When the firmware upgrade is sent to the controller, the Ready LED
extinguishes and the Busy LED will illuminate. After the firmware upgrade is
complete, the controller will re-boot showing the re-boot pattern (all LEDs on
except for Ready).
Note: The controller must be connected to the printer and both devices
powered to successfully download firmware.
Note: Print out a full set of test prints BEFORE performing the upgrade as
settings may be returned to their Factory Defaults and you may lose your
custom settings for the Active Parameters set. For Active Parameters Set
information, see "Setting the Active Parameters Option" in this manual.
