System Utility

Use the SYSTEM UTILITY menu (Figure 9) to upgrade firmware.

Figure 9. System Utility Menu

>Upgrade Firmware

Updates firmware when Express 6503 enhancements are released.

Transfer Method

Two transfer methods are available for use in updating the Express 6503.

The two methods for upgrading are XMODEM and TFTP. TFTP requires a TFTP server

running on the network. The Express 6503 starts a TFTP client function which gets the

upgrade code from the TFTP server. Selecting XMODEM will load the upgrade code through

the CRAFT port using any PC terminal emulator with xmodem capability. The factory default

is TFTP. (See Appendix B. Updating Express 6503 Firmware using XMODEM on page 52 for

more information.)

TFTP Server Address

This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the IP address or domain name (if

DNS is configured) of the TFTP server. The factory default is no entry in the TFTP server

address field.

TFTP Server Filename

This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the case-sensitive file name which

contains the upgrade code. The factory default is no entry in the TFTP server filename field.

Transfer Status

This appears when TFTP is used. It displays the status of the transfer as it happens. Any error

or success message will be displayed here.

User Interface Guide Express 6503 SHDSL ATM DSU User Manual

Start Transfer

This activator is used when the configurable items in this menu are complete.

Abort Transfer

Use this activator to cancel a TFTP transfer in progress.

>Config Transfer

Sends a file containing the Express 6503 configuration to a PC connected to the CRAFT port using

XMODEM protocol or to a file on a TFTP server using the TFTP protocol.

CONFIG TRANSFER also lets you save the Express 6503 configuration as a backup file, so you can use the

same configuration with multiple Express 6503 units. In addition, CONFIG TRANSFER can retrieve a

configuration file from a TFTP server.

To support these transfers, ADTRAN delivers a TFTP program with the Express 6503 called TFTP Server.

You can configure any PC running Microsoft Windows with this software, and store a configuration file.

Transfer Method

Displays the method used to transfer the configuration file to or from a server. XMODEM

and TFTP are supported. The factory default setting is TFTP.

Transfer Type

Only Binary transfers are currently supported.

TFTP Server IP Address

Specifies the IP address of the TFTP server. Get this number from your system administrator.

If using the ADTRAN Utilities TFTP server, this number appears in the TFTP server status

window. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0.

TFTP Server Filename

Defines the name of the configuration file that you transfer to or retrieve from the TFTP

server. The default name is 6503.cfg, but you can edit this name.

Current Transfer Status

Indicates the current status of the update.

Before using START TRANSFER, the Express 6503 should have a valid IP address, subnet

mask, and default gateway (if required).

Before using CONFIG TRANSFER, the Express 6503 should have a valid IP address, subnet

mask, and default gateway (if required).

Express 6503 SHDSL ATM DSU User Manual User Interface Guide

Save Config Remotely

Saves the configuration file specified in TFTP SERVER FILENAME to the server identified in

TFTP SERVER IP ADDRESS. To start this command, enter Y to begin or enter N to cancel.

>Ping

This menu includes the various ping test parameters such as the activator to control the test, host address,

packet size, and number of packets.

Start/Stop

Activator to start and cancel a ping test.

Host Address

IP address or domain name (if DNS is configured) of device to receive the ping. The factory

default is no entry in the host address field.

Size (40-1500)

Total size of the ping to send. Range is 40 to 1500 bytes. The default is 64.

# of Packets

Total packets to send every 2 seconds. Setting this to 0 allows the client to ping continuously.

The default is 1.

If you execute this command, the Express 6503 retrieves the configuration file, reboots, then

restarts using the new configuration.

Before using this command, you must have identified a valid TFTP server in TFTP SERVER

IP ADDRESS.

Only one ping session can be active at a time.

APPENDIX B. UPDATING EXPRESS 6503 FIRMWARE USING XMODEM

The Express 6503 supports firmware updating using XMODEM transfer protocol via the base unit’s

CRAFT port. XMODEM is found in the VT 100 terminal emulation application in the ADTRAN Utilities

package and in most PC VT 100 communications software packages.

Before beginning this procedure, you must obtain the appropriate update file from ADTRAN Technical

Support at (888) 4ADTRAN (423-8726).

An XMODEM download can be initiated by pressing B and cycling power to the unit or by using the

console menus. The following materials are required.

• VT 100 terminal or PC with VT 100 terminal emulation software

• XMODEM software

Make certain that the communications software package being used has flow control

turned off.

Express 6503 SHDSL ATM DSU User Manual User Interface Guide

Updating Firmware

1. Using a VT 100 terminal emulation communication software package which contains

XMODEM protocol support, set the transmit rate of the emulation software to 9600 baud.

2. Press B while powering up the Express 6503.

3. Choose option 1, BEGIN XMODEM DOWNLOAD NOW, from the menu to start the XMODEM file

download.

4. Press Y at the START FLASH DOWNLOAD NOW prompt to continue with the XMODEM file transfer.

To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a

lightning storm.

Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling

modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic

components. Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing.

When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is

electrically grounded.

Perform the Steps Below in the Order Listed

To shorten transmit time, select the option from the menu to change the transmit rate to

115.2 baud or the highest rate supported by the terminal emulation software. If this

transmit rate is changed, change emulation software properties to match this rate and

disconnect and connect again. Press Enter until the menu appears.

When Express 6503 is ready to receive the XMODEM upload, the menu screen will display

Transmit Flash . . . download file now. If this does not appear, please review the steps above

for possible configuration errors.

5. From the terminal emulation software, begin the XMODEM upload by using the appropriate

command sequence. (If necessary, refer to terminal emulation software documentation for

help. Also, when specifying the filename, ensure that the file transferred is the one provided by

ADTRAN. Otherwise, the update will not complete successfully.)

6. When the update has successfully completed, TRANSFER COMPLETE appears in the terminal

window. If an error occurs during the update, an error message will display in the terminal

window. If this occurs, return to Step 3 and attempt the update again. If the same error occurs,

contact ADTRAN Technical Support.

7. After the TRANSFER COMPLETE message has been displayed, cycle the power to the Express

6503.

8. Change the emulation software properties to 9600 baud. Disconnect and connect to the unit at

this transmit rate and continue configuring the unit as normal.

Updating Firmware via the Console Menus

1. Using a VT 100 terminal emulation communication software package which contains

XMODEM protocol support, log in to Express 6503.

2. Select SYSTEM UTILITY/UPDATE FIRMWARE.

3. Select XMODEM for TRANSFER METHOD.

4. Press Enter on START TRANSFER <+>.

5. When prompted, press Y to erase flash.

Because XMODEM data is being transferred in-band through the menu interface, the VT 100

menus of Express 6503 will be inoperable from the CRAFT port.

It is suggested that a factory default be conducted after the unit is updated with new

firmware.

When Express 6503 is ready to receive the XMODEM upload, the menu screen will clear

and display Transmit Flash . . . download file now. If this does not appear, please review the

steps above for possible configuration errors.

6. From the terminal emulation software, begin the XMODEM upload by using the appropriate

command sequence. (If necessary, refer to terminal emulation software documentation for

help. Also, when specifying the filename, ensure that the file transferred is the one provided by

ADTRAN. Otherwise, the update will not complete successfully.)

7. When the update has successfully completed, TRANSFER COMPLETE displays in TRANSFER

STATUS. The module restarts immediately and resumes operation. If an error occurs during the

update, an error message will display in the TRANSFER STATUS field. If this occurs, return to Step

3 and attempt the update again. If the same error occurs, contact ADTRAN Technical Support.

Because XMODEM data is being transferred in-band through the menu interface, the VT

100 menus of Express 6503 will be inoperable from the CRAFT port.
