Configuring the EF2800
7. Press the number on your keyboard that corresponds to the
protocol you want to use to transfer the firmware upgrade file from
your computer to the SM module. We recommend using the
KERMIT protocol.
The system shows that it is ready to use KERMIT.
8. Using your terminal emulator software, send the.fla file using
KERMIT.
If you are using HyperTerminal, select Transfer > Send File,
navigate to where the firmware update file is located, select it, and
click Open. Select the same Protocol from the drop-down list that
you selected from the Flash Utility screen. Click Send.
The file transfers. The system displays messages showing that it is
flashing the code and restarting the SM module.

Do not interrupt the power when transferring the new

9. Repeat steps 2 through 8 above on the other SM module.
H.13.2 Updating LAN Firmware
You can also update the firmware for the LAN subsystem inside the SM
modules and the LAN subsystem loader. The firmware is contained in
a.bfl file.
Updating the LAN firmware works best from a system that is not
running Windows 95 or 98. When using Windows 95 or 98, you received
a timeout message even though the ftp process is continuing. If you
upgrade the LAN firmware from other operating systems, such as
Windows NT or Windows 2000, you do not receive this message.
To upgrade the LAN subsystem’s firmware:
1. Check the version of LAN firmware you have now by pressing
<Ctrl>-<E> until the configuration information screen with that
information displays.
