How to Download Firmware Updates

The InfraStruXure ATS with Power Distribution requires multiple files to be downloaded to update

the firmware. Be sure to select all relevant files from the APC website for download, and repeat this

procedure for each of the firmware files.

From a local computer

1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port.

2. Use the configuration cable to connect the selected port to the console port on the ATS

monitoring unit.

3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) and configure the selected port for 9600 bps,

8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Save the changes.

password) and press the

ENTER key.

XMODEM.

7. The system will prompt you with

8. The system will then prompt you to choose a transfer rate and to change your terminal settings

to match the transfer rate. Press

ENTER to set the ATS to accept the download.
