Firmware update via the integrated FTP server

The SINAUT MD740-1 has an integrated FTP server (FTP = File Transfer Protocol).
This can be used to load an update - if available - of the communication software into
the SINAUT MD740-1.
We recommend using an FTP program (downloadable as Freeware from the Internet) to
establish a connection with the FTP server of the SINAUT MD740-1.
To establish an FTP connection, proceed as follows:
SINAUT MD740-1
Prerequisite:
The firmware file is located on the service PC
1. To make a connection to the FTP server of the
SINAUT MD740-1, proceed exactly as when accessing the Web
server
•
locally via the service interface - see page 83
•
locally via the application interface (10/100 BASE-T
connector) - see page 86
•
from a remote computer via the GPRS network (network-
dependent) - see page 87.
2. Instead of a Web browser, start an FTP program.
Enter as follows
Address:
User name:
Password:
Example: You are using the FTP program of the Windows
operating system. Click on Start, Run. After Open, enter: ftp
192.168.0.8 You will then be asked to enter the user name and
the password.
3. When the connection has been established, load the firmware
file (*.bin, e.g. gprsvpn.bin) into the SINAUT MD740-1.
After the firmware file has been transferred, load the file !cmdfile
into the device. This is the command for the SINAUT MD740-1
to accept the firmware.
4. Finally, close the FTP connection using the FTP program.
