Updating Systems with Two Broadlinx Boards
This section provides the steps that are needed to update both Broadlinx
boards within a Trinix frame that has two Broadlinx boards. At a high level
these steps are:
1. Update the software on the Compact Flash card.
2. Update the firmware by running the following commands:
• sendLoader(-1) - Updates all boards but the NR 33000.
• sendLoader(10,0,1) - Updates the Secondary NR 33000
• sendLoader(10,0,0)- Updates the Primary NR 33000
3. Update firmware from the Web page.
Needed Information
You will need to know the frame, and slot number to perform this task. You
can find the frame # by reading frame switch on the back of the frame or by
using the
deviceListShow command. The Primary NR 33000 slot is 0
and the Secondary board slot is 1.
Using the Console to Update the System Boards
Follow these steps to update both Broadlinx boards within the Trinix frame:
1. Remove both Broadlinx boards from the chassis and then remove the
CF cards by pressing the
Flash Module Eject buttons (Figure 12) for both
CFs.
Note If a Broadlinx board is not removed and the new card is inserted, it could be
corrupted by the live system. There is no automatic or manual method to
mount the file system on a live system.
For Encore controlled systems, the memory must be cleared by discon-
necting the battery, leave it out for couple of minutes, and then recon-
nect the battery. This process must be done on both Broadlinx boards.
