Firmware Update - Telos Z/IP ONE User Manual

68 | Section 13
The Z/IP ONE has two methods of software update, depending on the extent of the changes made in the
software version. The Unit consists of two pieces of software embedded in the units flash memory: the
application Firmware, and the Kernel. In some case you will only need to update the current Firmware.
In others, you may need to update the Kernel and the Firmware together: this is called a System Update.

Firmware Update

From the Setup->Software menu, examine the contents of the firmware in Bank 0 ("primary") and Bank 1
("secondary") of the flash memory. Make sure that you are "running" out of the Opposite bank from the
one which you will be updating. In other words, when you upload the update to the non-running bank, it
will erase the current contents of that bank, so make sure that you preserve the correct firmware version in
the other bank. If you are NOT running from the bank that you would like to preserve, then check the radio
button next to that bank and the click the "Reboot" button on the web page. When the unit comes back up,
navigate back to this page, and continue with the update process.
You are now ready to begin the update:
1. Download the latest software version for the Z/IP ONE from the Telos Systems web page
(www.telos-systems.com). Save it to a convenient place on your PC. Partition updates are typically
named following the naming convention "zipone-04Apr2011-V1.0.0r-full.tgz". DO NOT unpack
this archive.

into the Navigation Bar of your browser.
3. Navigate to the "Update" page of the Z/IP ONE.
4. Locate the "Update Firmware" section of the page and click the "Browse" button to locate the
software package you just downloaded. Navigate through your computer's directories and double
