6.1 Upgrading MC-Series Standard Capacity system Software

The following procedures describe how to upgrade MCSC system software. System

Manager contains two separate partitions in which to install software: active and

inactive. This provides the means to revert back to a previous version of system

software if required.

6.1.1 Download MC-Series Standard Capacity system Software to the

Laptop

Note: If the laptop already contains the docs, platform

and

iden directories for the system software in

the root, you may wish to delete these directories

and all of their contents before downloading and

extracting the latest system software. This way

you can ensure a complete clean install.

Download the latest system software, a self-extracting zip file, from:

http://www.radioframenetworks.com/partners

1. Navigate to the support pages. If you have not visited the RadioFrame

Networks PartnerWeb site, you will be asked to register. Use your e-mail

address and create a password.

2. Once your account is authenticated, install/extract the zip file directly into the C:/

drive on the laptop. The install creates three directories at the root level: docs,

platform and iden.

6.1.2 Download FTP Server Software to the Laptop Computer

You will need an FTP server application running on the laptop computer. If one is

already installed, you can skip to section 6.2 (Update the MC-Series Standard

Capacity system Software). The following procedure installs a shareware program

(Wftpd.exe) and configures it correctly. Use the method for your version of

Windows.

A. Windows XP Method

Windows XP is capable of correctly configuring Wftpd.exe if you follow these

steps.

1. Download Wftpd.exe, a self-extracting zip file, from:

http://www.radioframenetworks.com/partners

or from

http://www.wftpd.com/

2. Open the zip file with your archive/compress/extract utility (e.g., WinZip).

3. Extract to your Windows drive root directory (e.g., C:\).
