This appendix, for your convenience, explains the procedure for
updating the Application Loader software and has a troubleshooting
section to assist with any problems.
Please refer to the Application Loader User Manual to ensure you have

Updating Application Loader Software on Your Modem
The Application Loader software may be used for all Wavenet
modems. The procedure is the same for all modems but some of the
screens may differ in appearance.
Follow the procedure below to check the software version currently
loaded on your modem and if necessary, to upload the modem
application.
1. Connect the Boomer II to the Test Jig as described on page 22.
2. Connect the Data Communications Modem connector to the
Boomer II Test Jig’s PC connector.
3. Connect the Data Communications PC connector to a COM
(serial) port on your computer. Note that the Data Comms PC
connector is a 9-pin plug. If your computer has a 25-pin serial
port you will need a 9-pin to 25-pin adapter.
4. Switch the modem on.
5. Switch your PC on.
6. From the PC, open the appropriate Application Loader
(Apploader) file for your modem.
The letter(s) preceding the three numerical characters at the end
of the Apploader file name denotes which modem the file is
appropriate for, BM2 for the Boomer II OEM modem.
The three numerical characters at the end of the file name show
the version number of the application software, i.e.
408 is software version 4.08 and
233 is software version 2.33
If you select the incorrect Apploader file for your modem the
following typical message will be displayed.
