Power PMAC Firmware can be reloaded by means of the IDE or a USB flash drive/SD card.
Reloading Firmware Method 1: IDE
To install the latest firmware through the IDE, click on Delta Tau
Configure
Download Firmware:
Under the “PowerPMAC Firmware” tab, click the “Download Firmware” button. On clicking the button,
the IDE will ask whether it is acceptable to issue $$$*** (Global Reset) before updating the firmware. If
you click “Yes,” then the Power PMAC will be reset to factory default. It will then prompt you to browse
for the firmware file you want to download. It is recommended to issue $$$*** and make sure that the
Power PMAC is at factory default stage before downloading firmware, because the firmware download
process does not kill the C background programs that are already executing. In this case, the firmware
update process may not update all the files.
