3 On the Configuration submenu, scroll to System Update, then press
Enter. An hourglass appears on the panel display, then a 20-second
countdown appears.
4 Insert the Firmware Upgrade Tape into the mailslot. The
SuperLoader automatically loads the upgrade tape into the tape
drive. Messages appear on the display panel to indicate the update’s
progress. The update typically takes two or three minutes.
5 When
Reboot appears on the LCD, power the SuperLoader off then
on again.
To Access a Backup Copy of the Firmware: 4
If a power interruption or some other interruption occurs while you are
updating the firmware on the SuperLoader, the firmware may become
corrupted. However, you can access a backup copy of the firmware by
changing the position of the jumpers located on the front of the Drive
Carrier Assembly (DCA) (see figure 73
).
