FIRMWARE UPGRADE
System Requirements
• One free COM port on PC.
• A pin-to-pin RS-232 cable. One end is 9 pin male connector, the other end is 9 or 25
pin female connector depends on the COM port.
• FWUPLOAD.EXE : This is a DOS program for firmware upload. You can execute this
file in Windows 95/98/NT or at DOS prompt.
• FIRMWARE.BIN :This is a firmware image file. This file MUST reside in the same
subdirectory with FWUPLOAD.EXE.
For better disk access speed, it is recommended that you copy these two files to your hard
disk before uploading them to the DI-701.
Getting Uploaded
1. Connect the RS-232 cable from the Console port of your DI-701 iShare to the PC COM
port.
2. At the DOS prompt, run FWUPLOAD.EXE with COM port specified. You can type
"FWUPLOAD -?" first for reference.
For example: To use port COM 1 to upload firmware, type command as:
C:\> FWUPLOAD 1
3. Turn on the DI-701 iShare. FWUPLOAD.EXE automatically detects the DI-701 iShare
and completes the uploading. A sequence of messages similar to the following appears.
