The Get Diagnostic Logs command connects to the NOMAD MXU and uploads the latest logs, which

contain information on system usage and system health. The Display Diagnostic Logs command shows

the directory contents of the file directory created for the NOMAD MXU. The administrator can display,

edit or print the files by selecting them. The files are opened by whatever default text editor is configured

for the system (Notepad, for example).

The Clear Diagnostic Logs command resets the logs on the NOMAD MXU to zero entries. NOTE: This

should only be done if advised by support personnel

The Get Software Version command connects to the NOMAD MXU and retrieves and displays the

currently installed version numbers for software and firmware.

The Get Error Logs and Display Error Logs commands function like the Diagnostic Logs commands but

upload error reports, instead of diagnostic logs.

The Update Software and Update Firmware commands check the installation directory to see if code

updates are included in the installation. If updates are found, the NOMAD MXU is contacted and the new

code is transferred.

Update Firmware presents the following dialog box to allow the Administrator to control which Iridium

transceiver will be upgraded. There will be directions with the upgrade software distribution to explain if

any selection other than “ALL LBTs” should be used.
