>Upgrade Firmware
Updates firmware when TA 850 enhancements are released. Two transfer methods are available for use in updating
the TA 850 system controller.
Transfer Method
The two methods for upgrading are XMODEM and TFTP. (See Appendix A. Updating TA 850 Firmware
using XMODEM on page 53 and Appendix B. Updating TA 850 Firmware using TFTP on page 57 for more
information.) TFTP requires a TFTP server running somewhere on the network. The TA 850 starts a TFTP
client function which gets the upgrade code from the TFTP server. Selecting XMODEM will load the
upgrade code through the
CRAFT
port using any PC terminal emulator with xmodem capability.
TFTP Server Address
This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the IP address or domain name (if DNS is config-
ured) of the TFTP server.
TFTP Server Filename
This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the case-sensitive file name which contains the
upgrade code.
Transfer Status
This appears when TFTP is used. It displays the status of the transfer as it happens. Any error or success
message will be displayed here.
