If the Firmware version being updated is same as in the file, it prompts the user: Same FW
available on board, update not required. Then it terminates the upgrade process without
doing anything.
If the Firmware version on the board is newer than what is selected as upgrade, it prompts the
user: Latest FW available on board, update not required. Again it terminates the upgrade
process without doing anything.
If the Firmware version on the board is older than what is being updated, it proceeds with
the Firmware Upgrade process.
The Boot status LED blinks continuously to indicate that the Firmware Upgrade is in
progress.
The Status Column in the Firmware Upgrade Status window will display the status of upgrade
with below messages:
– Displays Initializing... at the start of Firmware Upgrade Process (for about 30 Seconds
approximately, from the start of the Upgrade process)
– After 30 Seconds approx. the Status column displays Uploading... for about a minute
– After the above one minute, the Status column displays Applying Changes... for the
remaining duration.
– The above messages will be followed by a continuous increasing & decreasing number
of dots to show that the Firmware upgrade is still in progress. At the end of Firmware
upgrade, the status gets displayed as Upgrade Successful
– When the Firmware Upgrade gets completed, the OK Button appears in the screen for
the user to close the Window.
Important Note: The Upgrade might take a minimum of 5 to 8 minutes to upgrade the total image
on the NetUSB-400i. Do not power-off the USB Server or remove the network cable during the
Firmware Upgrade. The Boot status LED halts and stands solid again after the firmware upgrade
is completed.
