make the device function as a part of a proprietary infrastructure.
5.2.2. Remote Firmware Upgrade
Tornado M53/M55/M70/M60/M80 will attempt to contact the http://server_ip/cgi-bin/if.cgi?run=mdown
HTTP/URL location for configuration upgrade and will attach some additional information such as its
MAC address and Version number (the version number is numeric). For example to upgrade its firmware
the device will submit the following request:
http://server_ip/cgi-bin/if.cgi?run=mdown&mac=0004766f1d4d&ver=2
The returned file will be with one of the following names:
1. “none” - there is no newer firmware available or the MAC/Version is invalid.
2. “tornado.Y.X.bin” where X is a number represents the current version number of the downloaded
firmware upgrade. Y represents the device type.
The returned binary file is used to upgrade the device. Once it is downloaded by the device, it will reboot
itself.
6. Implementation Guide
TORNADO uses WebKit browser for Linux and includes support for advanced Java Script functionality.
The device heavily uses JS to accommodate all User Interface requirements. Due to the complex nature of
this interface we recommend that a highly qualified JS programmer uses the created default themes and
based on them develop interface customizations.
6. 1. Theme Management
TORNADO STB comes preloaded with two themes that can be easily customized by an experienced Java
Script programmer. The themes contain a large number of functions that can be used to implement various
customer requirements. In addition, the themes allow creation of advanced graphical interfaces. To
download the themes please follow these steps:
Log into the Admin Interface
Select “Theme Management” and then “Edit”
Select “Download Theme” and download the selected Theme File. For more information about the
Theme File package, please read the “Theme Distribution Structure” section.
