To initiate a FW update operation, you must perform the following steps:
1.
select the FW type; the page will refresh to display the list of available devices matching your
selection; the devices are listed in a table - the
EUI-64 Address
, the
Device Tag
,
Device
role/Model
,
Revision
and
Level
are indicated for each device;
2.
check the target device(s) for which you wish to update the firmware; to select all the devices,
check
All
in the table header;
Note:
In the
Search
form located on top of the device list you can search for a device by typing the
EUI-64 Address
or the device tag in the dedicated input fields. You can also filter devices by
Revision
or
Level
.
3.
select a FW file from the drop-down list;
4.
if you selected
Sensor
at step 1, you must select the bandwidth allocation and specify the TSAP
ID and ID of the Object in charge of executing the FW update on the device side; otherwise, go
directly to step 5;
Note
: The bandwidth allocation is based on the
CommittedBurst
parameter of the GW -> Device
contract. The device must set a similar value for the
CommittedBurst
parameter in the Device -> GW
contract that is used to respond to BULK requests. The whole bulk transfer will be done at the
lowest of the two transfer rates. The SM will decide the transfer rate for the Radio FW and may
decide to modify the transfer rate based on availability. The transfer rate for the Sensor Board FW is
determined by the user input and the parameter
CommittedBurst
set by the Sensor Board in the
Device -> GW contract used to respond to bulk requests.
5.
click
Execute
; the system will require confirmation to perform the action; click
OK
to start the
update or
Cancel
to abort the action.
When the update starts, you will be redirected to the Device Firmware page, where you can monitor the
progress of the update operation. In addition, a message is displayed at the bottom of the page,
indicating that the FW upgrade operation(s) started for the selected devices.
A
Firmware Update
command is also generated. The command and its parameters can be viewed in the
Commands Log (please see the
Section 6.2.7.
).
Note:
If you execute a FW update on a device for which an update operation is already in progress, the
following error message is displayed:
“0 firmware upgrade operation(s) started! The following devices
already have a firmware upgrade in progress: <Device_EUI64>”
.
