Network Management Card Wizard Introduction Overview ® ® The APC Network Management Card Wizard is a Microsoft Windows application that pre-configures and reconfigures single or multiple Management Cards of APC devices. . You cannot use the Wizard to upgrade the firmware for a Management Card. Instead, use FTP, SCP, or XMODEM. See Upgrading Firmware. The Wizard works locally through the serial port of your computer or remotely over your TCP/IP network. Using the Wizard to configure the Net

Reconfiguring multiple Network Management Cards To reconfigure multiple Network Management Cards: 1. Deploy your NetworkAIR PA Portable Air Conditioners without any pre- configuration. 2. Configure the TCP/IP settings of each NetworkAIR PA Air Conditioner remotely through auto-discovery of its Management Card. See Configuring the required TCP/IP settings. The Network Management Cards can also use a DHCP server to assign the TCP/IP settings. See the Boot Mode description in the NetworkAIR ACPA

File Transfers Introduction Overview The Network Management Card automatically recognizes binary firmware files. Each of these files contains a header and one or more Cyclical Redundancy Checks (CRCs) to ensure that the data contained in the file is not corrupted before or during the transfer operation. When new firmware is transmitted to the Network Management Card, the program code is updated and new features become available. This chapter describes how to transfer firmware files to Networ

Upgrading Firmware Firmware defined Broadly defined, firmware is highly specialized, reliable software that resides on a memory chip within a computer or computer-related device. The firmware allows the Management Card to manage the NetworkAIR PA Portable Air Conditioner. Benefits of upgrading firmware Upgrading the firmware on the Network Management Card has the following benefits: • New firmware has the latest bug fixes and performance improvements. • New features become available for immed

Obtain the latest firmware version To determine if updated firmware is available to download, go to the “Software Downloads” page, www.apc.com/tools/download, on the APC Web site. The firmware upgrade consists of the two modules: An APC Operating System (AOS) module and an application module. See Firmware files (Network Management Card). You cannot upgrade the AOS firmware module of any APC device directly from firmware version 1.x.x to 2.1.0 or later. The upgrade attempt will fail. To upgr

Firmware file transfer methods You can use FTP or SCP to upgrade the firmware of one or more Network Management Cards over the network. You can use XMODEM to upgrade the firmware for a Network Management Card that is not on the network. When you use FTP, SCP, or XMODEM to upgrade the firmware for a Network Management Card, the APC Operating System (AOS) module must be transferred to the Network Management Card before you transfer the application module.
