11.3 Performing a Site Download With GCP 8000 Site
Controllers
Procedure Steps
1
Connect an Ethernet straight through cable between the Ethernet port on the computer and the Ethernet service
port on the site controller. The laptop IP address must be set to an address on the subnet of the local site, which
varies depending on the site and zone numbers. See
4.4.4 Connecting Through an Ethernet Port Link, page 4-11
If 802.1x services are enabled on the site controller, an 802.1x login account to connect to the Ethernet
port is needed. An 802.1x account is a centrally managed account. See Chapter 6, “802.1x Service Port
Procedures for GCP 8000 Site Controller” in the
802.1x Service Ports on Switches
manual.
2
Open the Software Download application.
Make sure to load the correct version of the software. There is a possibility of a mismatch in
software versions when replacing the transceiver module with an on-hand spare. If a mismatch
in software versions occurs, this may cause the transceiver to go into a configuration mode of
operation with a reason of ‘Invalid Software Version’. To exit the base radio out of configuration
mode, see CSS Procedures > Changing from Configuration to Normal Mode in the CSS Online
Help.
