13.2.2 Manually upgrading I-Series panel application code
Before you manually upgrade the application code for I-Series panels, ensure that you have the
following equipment:
• An I-Series serial interconnect lead.
• RS232/RS422 adaptor (see Figure 86: Example converter cable).
• An installed Tera Term application.
• A paperclip or small flat blade screwdriver to access maintenance button on the rear
of the I-Series panel.
Tera Term uses a special file with the updated I-Series or E-station application code, instead of an
*.fwp file. The file has an *.s19 file extension and the specific files can be found on the software DVD:
• Software DVD > Panel Software > I-Series > xxxxxxZ-I-Series App
• Software DVD > Panel Software > I-Series > xxxxxxZ-E-Station App
Where xxxxxxZ represents the product number.
Tip: An I-Series or E-station with either no firmware installed or corrupted firmware may be repaired
through an upgrade (the station will display Display Module Test, Press All Buttons 3X).
To manually upgrade the I-Series panel application code:
1. Install Tera Term. Third party software is available from either of the Eclipse HX 7.5 DVDs:
• Software DVD > 3rd_Party_Software > Teraterm
• Hardware DVD > 3rd_Party_Software > Teraterm
Tip: For more information about installing Tera Term, see Appendix F: Tera Term
