Software can be updated by connecting a repeater to your computer. Each
repeater has a USB "Micro" connector. Use a cable with USB connector
type "A" on one end and "Micro" connector on the other end. A terminal
program which has the capability to send a file is required to perform the
update process. Tera-Term is recommended. Cygnal "CP2101" drivers also
are required. Both Tera-Term & the CP2101 drivers can be downloaded
from the Leviton website.
Terminal communication settings:
• Baud:
• Stop Bits:
• Line Delay:
Steps:
1. Initiate connection to the repeater through the terminal program. Once
properly communicating to the repeater you should have a command
prompt as follows (You may need to tap Enter):
CLI>
2. Type "update" followed by Enter as follows:
CLI> update
Preparing to update application...
Erasing Application...Complete
Send File...
3. At the "Send File..." prompt, send the firmware file as an ASCII file. You
will see the file echoed to the screen as it is loaded. When transfer is
complete, the repeater will re-boot. Usually, after reboot, you will see
the following:
*******************************************************************************
Leviton CAN Repeater
Firmware version = 0.05
*******************************************************************************
CLI>
If you don't see the version screen, disconnect the terminal program and
reconnect. Then, at the command prompt type the "Version" command
and you will see the following:
CLI> version
*******************************************************************************
Leviton CAN Repeater
Firmware version = 0.05
*******************************************************************************
