Choosing the Right Software File

Lantronix intends to provide multiple software files for each SCS model. The software file
name corresponds to the model name, as shown in the table below.
The SCS stores its software in Flash ROM. The software controls the initialization
process, the operation of the SCS, and the processing of commands. The contents of
Flash ROM can be updated by downloading a new version of the operational software.

Obtaining Software

You can obtain a current firmware file and release notes for the SCS from the Lantronix
web site (www.lantronix.com) or by using anonymous FTP (ftp.lantronix.com).

Via the Web

You can download the latest version of the firmware from the Technical Support area of
the Lantronix web site. The files are listed as:
Note: Netscape Navigator may try to open the file as an ASCII text file. To avoid
this, hold down the Shift key when choosing the software file.

Via FTP

The SCS software resides on the Lantronix FTP server (ftp.lantronix.com). Most of these
files are binary data, so the binary option must be used to transfer the files. All released
files are in the pub directory. Always download the README file in the pub directory
before downloading anything else; it contains a list of available software files.
To log into the FTP server, type anonymous as the username and enter your full email
address as the password.
