How to update a drive through FTP
Follow the next steps to update the device once in FTP bootloader.
-
Go to the folder where the .cfu file is located.
-
Open cmd terminal on this folder.
-
Make sure that the ethernet cable is connected.
-
Make sure that the ethernet network IP is 192.168.2.1 (or in the network 255.255.255.0).
The default IP address of a summit drive in "FTP mode" is 192.168.2.22.
Use the proper network parameters if you are not using the default IP.
-
Make sure that the firewall is not blocking the connection.
-
Write the next command on the cmd:
ftp 192.168.2.22
-
The next message should appear:
-
For .cfu files -> User: Coco -> Password: Ingenia
-
Next message should be seen:
-
Use the next command to load the file:
put file_name.cfu
-
If the transmission starts following messages will be seen:
200 Ok 150 Ok
If those messages don't appear, it may be needed to disable the network firewall for public networks.
-
Wait until the transmission finished appears (it can take several seconds):
226 File transfer completed
-
Board will be reset automatically, wait until the board is restarted (wait until the LED red turns off). This can take more than a minute.
-
The firmware has been updated.
