user PC.
B. On the PC – configure the terminal emulator program.
Refer to your terminal emulator program HELP feature or user guide for
operating and configuration instructions.
Configure the utility program for either serial port or Telnet communication and terminal

D. Obtain the firmware information via one of the following methods:

Using Serial Remote Control or Telnet via the user PC terminal emulation program –
Log in to the HPOD, and then use ‘ FRW ’ remote query to obtain, and make note of, the
firmware information:
Type (without the quotes) “<1/FRW?”<cr> at the command prompt to query the HPOD for its
Firmware Number.
See Chapter 5. SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT for
information and instructions on using Remote Commands and Queries.
2. Next, create a temporary folder (subdirectory) on the user PC for the firmware archive
download.
