Upgrading the RCM
The RCM FLASH upgrade feature allows you to upgrade your unit with the
latest firmware available. To perform this update you will need a TFTP server.
If you don’t already have a TFTP server, there are several you can download
from the internet.
Once you set up your TFTP server, you will need to download the latest FLASH
firmware from IBM at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support or copy the FLASH
upgrade file (.fl file extension) from the CD. Save the FLASH upgrade file to the
appropriate directory on the TFTP server. Once this is complete, the following
steps will upload the new FLASH file.
To upload a new FLASH fi le:
1. Connect a terminal or PC running terminal emulation software (such as
HyperTerminal) to the confi guration port on the back panel of the RCM.
The terminal should be set to 9600 baud, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no
fl ow control.
2. Connect the LAN port on the RCM to an Ethernet hub that is also
connected to the PC being used as the TFTP server.
3. Launch both the server software and the terminal emulation software.
4. Verify that the RCM is turned on. After approximately 40 seconds, the
RCM will send out a message, IBM RCM Ready__Press any key to continue .
Press any key to access the main menu. The RCM main menu appears.
5. Get the IP address of the TFTP server by extracting it from the OS tools

b. Note the RCM’s IP address. The fi rst three numbers must be the same
as in the server’s IP address from step 4 above. The last number must
be different. If the RCM’s IP address is not correct, change it as fol-
lows: Type

c. Type Ø to exit the network confi guration menu. If you changed the IP
address, wait per the directions on the screen.
