Similar in function to the upgrade section found on the PairingInfo page, this section provides you
with a method of transferring software updates and license files to or transferring log data from
individual COM46 cards. See Section 11 for more information on upgrading your COM46 cards.
Following is a brief explanation of each field shown above.
Usage
- This field is used to tell the COM46 which type of transfer to execute. Only four values
are available for customer use (all others are for development purposes only):
1 = MT – This option allows you to upload the special MediaTune authorization and channel
guide files. See COM2000 Technical Support - Mediatune Installation Folder on the
Technicolor / MCS website for details.
2 = Software Upgrade
– This option is used to update the COM46 software. In this case, the
file is downloaded to the COM46 card displayed in the browser’s URL field.
3 = Log
– This option tells the COM46 to transfer its log file to the destination entered in the
“IP_Address” field (i.e., log file is uploaded to PC).
4=License
– This option uploads the XML license file that enables advanced features on
the COM46 such as the HD upgrade for the COM46-FLX.
Options above 5 & 6 are not enabled for field use.
Server_IP_Address
- This field tells the COM46 card where to retrieve the software update or
license file or where to send the log file, based upon the “Usage” setting above. The default
value for this field is 192.168.1.254.
Filename
- This value entered in this field tells the COM46 which file to download (in the case
of software updates and license files), or what name you want to give the log file being
transferred from the card.
Mode
- This field is used to tell the COM46 card which file-transfer protocol to use for the file
transfers. The supported modes are TFTP (option ‘0’) and FTP (option ‘1’), allowing you to
select the mode that best works with the software you use for the transfer. The default setting is
0. The card will automatically reset after completing an upgrade.
