Appendix C: Flash Upgrading

& External Configuration

Each extender unit contains a service port. This can be accessed through the mouse port on a

Remote unit or through the 25-way D-connector on a Local unit. By attaching an upgrade

cable between the appropriate port and the serial port on any PC (or laptop) a unit’s firmware

may be upgraded.

To operate the configuration port, you need:

• A laptop or PC close to the extender unit running Windows 98 or above. The extender

unit only has to be powered.

• An upgrade cable connected between the Extender’s service port and the laptop or PC’s

serial port (Part No: ACUFLH-R2).

• A software utility called ‘ConfigXt’.

• The firmware upgrade file.

The application, detailed instructions and firmware upgrades may be downloaded online.

Please consult Technical Support for details on how to do this.
