ASMi-52 Ver. 2.8 Upgrading ASMi-52 Software via the Boot Menu 6-7
Two software downloading options are available from the Boot menu:
• Downloading using the XMODEM protocol. This is usually performed by
downloading from a PC directly connected to the CONTROL port of the unit.

• Downloading using the TFTP. This is usually performed by downloading from a
remote location that provides an IP communication path to an Ethernet port
of ASMi-52.
Using the XMODEM Protocol
Use the following procedure to download software release 2.8 to ASMi-52 via
XMODEM.
1. Verify that the *.img file is stored on the PC with the terminal application.
2. Configure the communication parameters of the selected PC serial port for
asynchronous communication for 115.2 kbps, no parity, one start bit, eight
data bits and one stop bit. Turn all types of flow control off.
3. Turn off ASMi-52.
4. Activate the terminal application.
5. Turn on ASMi-52 and immediately start pressing the <Enter> key several
times in sequence until you see the Boot screen. A typical screen is shown
below (the exact version and date displayed by your ASMi-52 may be
different).
If you miss the timing, ASMi-52 performs a regular reboot process (this process
starts with Loading and ends with a message to press <Enter> a few times to
display the log in screen).
