Upgrading Your TA128

This chapter describes how to upgrade flash EPROM firmware
when it is available.

Upgrading with Flash EPROM

Your TA128 employs a flash EEPROM (Electronic Erasable
Programmable Read Only Memory) that lets you conveniently
update firmware and program the TA with new features and
enhanced functions. If you use Windows, use the ZyXEL Internet
Configuration Manager to upgrade new firmware. For other
Operating Systems, use a terminal program that supports the X-
modem protocol.
Obtain the new firmware from ZyXEL's BBS, WWW, or FTP site.
See Contacting ZyXEL on page v for more information. The
firmware is distributed in a file TA128d.vvv, where the extension
vvv denotes the version of this firmware. The modifier d in the
filename has the following definitions:
G - German national ISDN (1TR6).
E - European ISDN (DSS1), also used in most other countries
including Asian countries.
A - American ISDN(AT&T 5ESS, Northern Telecom DMS-
100, or National ISDN-1, the active D channel protocol can be
chosen by an AT command).
: The American firmware version supports both the S/T interface

NOTE
and U interface models. During the power-on test, it checks
the hardware configuration and follows the initialization
procedures of the specific interface.
1. Make sure your TA128 is turned ON.
