Upgrade and Files Upload
The Upgrade and Files Upload page allows the user to upgrade system software
components such as:
• Modulator Application
• Linux Kernel (included in the Modulator Application)
• Modulator FPGA
• Up-converter Software
The first step in the upgrade process is the selection of the proper upgrade file using the
“Browse” button – see Figure 34. Once the file is selected, click on “Start Download” to
initiate the upgrade process. The upgrade file contains all the information required to
define the component which is being upgraded.
Please note that the Web server is a single threaded server which only allows one
connection at a time. Therefore if the upgrade is performed via a phone line, the file
transfer can take 10 minutes depending on the connection speed and file size. The
contents of the pop-up dialog will be blank. It will only start showing the upgrade
information when the file is completely transferred.
The upgrade file contains all the information required to define the component which is
