Loading Software into a BANDIT™ Product

our BANDIT™ device has been shipped with the latest version of the Encore Legacy-to-IP Operating System™ (ELIOS™) software installed. However, when the ELIOS™ software is revised, you will want to load the revised software into your BANDIT.

Note: When you upgrade the ELIOS software, the upgrade reloads the BANDIT’s saved configuration. Make sure you have saved the current configuration before you load new software. See Saving (Writing) a Configuration.

Caution: If you have replaced hardware in this device, make sure you have also reconfigured the device’s software to reflect the hardware change. Also be sure to save (Write) that new configuration before loading a software upgrade. You must do all of this before updating the software.

If you upgrade software before reconfiguring for any hardware changes, the software upgrade may not perform optimally.

The following overview outlines the process for loading application software:

1 A BANDIT device has two code regions for application software. One region is active at a time. Before you load new software, check to see which region of the BANDIT code is active. See Section D.1, Determining the Active Code Region for Application Software.

2 You can load updated ELIOS™ software into the BANDIT in the following ways:

Option A: You can download the software from the control terminal (through the Supervisory Port). See Section D.2, Downloading BANDIT Application Software from the Control Terminal (via Flash).

Option B: You can download the software from the network (through the LAN port). See Section D.3, Downloading BANDIT Application Software from the Network (via TFTP).

3 After you have downloaded the new application software (and, if you updated via Option B, after you have saved the new software configuration and have reset the BANDIT), you must make the new software the primary code region and you must make it the active code region. See Section D.4, Making the New Application Software Primary and Active.

a Disconnect the management application’s electrical connection (i.e., its software connection) from the BANDIT. (But leave the physical connection—the cable between the PC and the BANDIT—in place.)

Note: If the management application software can be disconnected without being closed, leave the management application open.

b Open an application that can transfer files.

Note: The transfer application you select can use a menu, a graphic user interface, or a command line interface.

Caution: If you did not disconnect the management application’s electrical connection, the transfer application will be unable to connect to the BANDIT. You may see a message similar to the following message.

Figure D-1. Message That Communication Port Cannot Be Opened

c If you see the message in Figure D-1, close the message and repeat Step 12.

Note: After the transfer application opens, you may see a message similar to the following.

d If you see this message, answer N (no). The transfer will not take place across a LAN. It will take place over the direct connection between the terminal (console) and the BANDIT.

❖ The transfer application shifts to terminal mode.

13 In the transfer application, do the following:

a Set the PC’s baud rate to 57600 bps.

!


b Press Enter.

❖ A message similar to the following message appears in the transfer application window.

Note: Because the file resides on the PC that is running the transfer application, we will upload the file from the PC (according to the PC’s point of view).

Caution: If you do not see a message to start downloading, or if the screen displays unexpected characters (for example, δ, ¬, or φ), the baud rates do not match. In this case, perform Step 13a and Step 13b again.

c Set the upload protocol to ASCII.

❖ A window is displayed, asking for the name of the file to transfer.

d Type the full path and filename (as shown in the example below), and press Enter to start transferring the file to the BANDIT.

G:\BANDT_SW\64070200.RX

❖ The application starts transferring the file to the BANDIT. The transfer application’s window may show the progress of the transfer (by indicating the number of bytes sent).

Note: The file transfer may take 20 minutes or more. Wait until the file transfer has completed.

There are two parts (steps) in the file transfer when performed from the control terminal:

Part 1: • Uploading the code

❖ When the first part (the upload) has completed, you may hear a soft beep. The screen may display a message similar to the following.

Part 2: • Programming the uploaded code

❖ After the upload has completed, the transfer starts the second part (programming the code). The transfer application’s window may show the programming progress (for example, as a progression of dots).

❖ When the programming has completed, the transfer application screen displays the BANDIT Diagnostic Low Level Operations menu.

e In the transfer application, after the file transfer has finished, change the baud rate of the control console to 9600 bps.

14 If you used the same application for the management connection to the BANDIT and for the file transfer, go to Step 15. Otherwise, do the following.

Note: In this step’s discussion, the terms “connection,” “connect,” and “disconnect” refer to the electrical connection between devices. In this step’s discussion, the terms do not refer to the physical connection.

a If the transfer application requires a separate step to disconnect communication with the BANDIT, disconnect the application.

Note: Some transfer applications automatically disconnect communication when they are properly closed.

b Close the transfer application.

Caution: Use the transfer application’s defined method of closing. (That is, use the transfer application’s exit command.)

Do not use the operating system’s default closing routine to close the transfer application, because that may not disconnect the application. In such a case, the BANDIT may retain the connection to the transfer application, preventing the management application from reconnecting to the BANDIT.

If the BANDIT will not allow the management application to reconnect, re-open the transfer application. Then use the transfer application’s commands to disconnect and close properly.

c Reconnect the management application.

15 Unplug the BANDIT to turn its power off; then plug the BANDIT back into its power source.

❖ The BANDIT restarts. (This also resets the BANDIT’s baud rate to 9600.)

17 Go to Section D.4, Making the New Application Software Primary and Active.

D.3 Downloading BANDIT Application Software from the Network (via TFTP)

Note: Make sure you have performed the procedure in Section D.1, Determining the Active Code Region for Application Software. In addition, the BANDIT device’s LAN port must be connected to the network.

1 Make sure a network host in your LAN has a TFTP server.

Note: The network host must contain the ELIOS™ software update (for example, 55350600.RX) and a TFTP server application.

2 On the network host, start the TFTP server application and do the following:

a Verify the TFTP host’s IP address.

b Make sure the new software file (for example, 55350600.RX) is in the TFTP directory.

c Leave the TFTP application open.

3 Make sure the BANDIT’s LAN port is connected to the network that the host resides on.

Note: If you are using a laptop PC as a temporary host, you can connect the BANDIT’s LAN port to the host’s LAN port. You will still have to configure the IP addresses used for this procedure.

❖ When the BANDIT is connected to a LAN, the Link LED for the BANDIT’s LAN port stays on.

4 On the BANDIT’s Main Menu, select Advanced Configurations.

❖ The Advanced Configurations menu is displayed.

6 Select IP Address.

❖ The following prompt appears.

7 If the BANDIT does not already have an IP address, type one and press Enter.

Note: Get all IP addresses (even temporary IP addresses) from your network administrator.

The BANDIT and the host must be in the same network. If you are setting up a temporary connection (e.g., with a laptop as host), you can assign the BANDIT a temporary IP address in the same subnet as the host.

For example, if the host’s IP address is 192.168.202.6 and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, you can give the BANDIT an IP address of 192.168.202.x, where x is any unused value between 0 and 255. (So x cannot be 6 or any other value already used in the subnet.) Your network administrator can provide an appropriate value for x.

However, when the BANDIT resumes function as a network gateway, it must use the permanent IP address assigned by the network administrator.
