Configuring Communication

Ethernet Over USB

The MVP-5200i device is the first G4 device to support a new Ethernet over USB driver for panel downloads
and firmware updates. This means that the device can connect to a host computer for updates through its Mini
USB port instead of through a standard Ethernet port (FIG. 28).

Because of its Ethernet over USB capabilities, the MVP-5200i also follows a different procedure for
downloading firmware than with other G4 devices.
Firmware downloads require use of the USB Programming Cable (FG10-5965) and a computer running
Windows XP.

If the connection goes well, the Windows XP machine will detect the device as an unsupported USB
device. It then presents a dialog that prompts the user for a suitable driver (FIG. 29):
