Maintenance RF-Baton! Transmitter Controller Installation and Operation
6-48 6880497G01-B June 1999
Local Software Download Using the Front Panel
The Local Software Download is executed using the FIPS interface and a Trivial File Transfer
Protocol (TFTP) server. The Local Software Download procedure loads a new software image
to the Dormant Flash Bank. The RF-B! transmitter controller continues to pass paging traffic
while the download is underway. Paging operation is disrupted temporarily when the cutover
of the new software is performed. This disruption is equivalent to the time the RF-B!
transmitter controller takes to reset and achieve GPS synchronization—approximately 5-10
minutes.
Equipment
The following equipment is required to perform a local software download.
• PC or workstation running a VT100 terminal emulator program (Procomm Plus)
• Serial cable with null-modem
• TFTP Server with UNIX formatted RF-B! transmitter controller S-Record File
Setup
Assure that the S-Record File is loaded on the TFTP Server in the /tftpboot directory (this is
the directory that the RF-B! transmitter controller attempts to access for the S-Record).
