MR4800E Owner’s Manual

6.4 On-Line Upgrade via Flash PEROM and FLASHPRO

Software

The MR4800E Rack Controller has a Flash PEROM (Programmable and Erasable Read Only

Memory) chip which contains firmware code. At various times, Multi-Tech will add enhancements

and/or fixes to the firmware. The Flash technology used allows these firmware upgrades to be loaded

directly into the PEROM via the MR4800E Controller’s back configuration port connection. The

FLASHPRO software is used to reprogram the Flash PEROM using an Intel .HEX file.

This program requires:

• MS-DOS version 2.11 or higher,

• serial port on dedicated management console,

• 384K RAM available, and

• Multi-Tech supplied INTEL .HEX file to load.
