D: Updating Firmware
D.1 Obtaining Firmware
Current firmware files are available on the distribution CD. Firmware updates and release
notes for the TCP2RS can be downloaded directly from Circutor via the Circutor World
Wide Web site (www.circutor.com/tcp2rs.htm).
D.2 Reloading Firmware
There are three ways to update the TCP2RS’s internal operational code (LTX*.ROM or
LTX*.HEX): via TFTP, via another device server, or via the serial port.
You can also update the TCP2RS’s internal Web interface (LTXW*.COB) via TFTP.
D.2.1 Via TFTP
To download new firmware from a computer:
1
Use a TFTP client to send a binary file to the TCP2RS (LTX*.ROM to upgrade
the TCP2RS’s internal operational code and LTXW*.COB to upgrade its internal
Web interface).
Note:
TFTP requires the .ROM (binary) version of the TCP2RS’s internal
operational code.
