5.4 Service Tool Software update
If a new software release is made available from Thrane & Thrane to support the SB5006
service tool, this may be downloaded as a file from the T&T extranet.
Before initiating the upload process of the software file to the SB5006, the applicable
software file must be stored on the service PC harddrive.
Click on the HTML/SW Update Service Tool menu on the index page. The following page
will appear:
Figure 5.10 SB5006 software upload page. Single pages are also updated via this page.
The file is selected from the Browse button and Apply is clicked. There will be no indication
on the LAN card or on the VHF display, while LAN software update is on-going. Only the
progress bar at the bottom of the browser indicates the update.
The software update will take approximately 3 minutes, and will terminate on the index page.
The build version is checked in the LAN Box field on the index page.
5.4.1 LAN HTML upload
Typically, all service pages will be bundled as a complete file system. The file system will be
released as a directory containing the HTML pages and a programming tool. Programming a
complete file system is easiest done using the following procedure:
The released HTML file system directory must be saved on the service PC. Now start the file
explorer on the PC and enter the HTML directory. Search for the ‘
put_all_lanbox’ batch file,
double-click the icon, and wait until the command file has executed.
Start the web browser and type ‘lanbox’ at the address line. The index page should now
appear.
Note: The SB5006 software file and the corresponding HTML files are released together. It is
a must the HTML page upload is performed each time the service tool has been updated
with new software.
