3.12.1 Installing Firmware via TFTP

Firmware images are available free-of-charge at:

www.GEmds.com/Resources/TechnicalSupport/

.

NOTE:

You may not install AP firmware in Remote radios, or
vice-versa. This was only possible for early (pre-version 2.1.0)
firmware.

To install firmware by TFTP, you need:

• A PC with a TFTP server running
• The IP address of the PC running the TFTP server
• A valid firmware file

The IP address of the radio can be found under the Management 
System’s 

Starting Information Screen

. (

See “Starting Information Screen” 

on Page 42

.)

A TFTP server is available on the GE MDS Web site at:

www.GEmds.com/Resources/TechnicalSupport/

. 

TIP: If you do not know your computer’s address on a Windows PC, you 

can use the 

RUN

 function from the 

Start

 menu and enter

 winipcfg

 or 

ipconfig 

to determine your local PC’s IP address. 

There are several alternatives to connecting the transceiver for firmware 
upgrades. 

Figure 3-108

 and 

Figure 3-109

 show two variations. It is 

essential that all equipment be on the same subnet.
