HOW TO UPDATE ULTRATRAK SERIES FIRMWARE

	CAUTION: Be sure that you are using the correct firmware
	file for your particular model of UltraTrak Series. Using an 
	incorrect file will cause the unit to not function.

Firmware updates may be available on the Promise web site (www.promise.com). 
Promise recommends updating the UltraTrak Series firmware only if you are 
experiencing a problem that the firmware update addresses. 

Update UltraTrak Series firmware by performing the following steps:

1.	Download the firmware upgrade package from www.promise.com.

2.	With UltraTrak powered off, connect a Null Modem Cable 
	between the COM1 connector on the back of the UltraTrak and a 
	powered down computer (connect to either COM1 or COM2). The computer 
	must be capable of booting from an MS-DOS floppy.

3.	Insert a DOS Boot diskette into the computer, power it on and allow 
	it to boot to DOS.

4.	Remove the DOS Boot diskette.

5.	Insert a diskette containing the firmware upgrade executable and the 
	UltraTrak Series firmware binary file.
	At the DOS prompt, type dir and press Enter to be sure that you have 
	the correct files, such as, txbxx.bin and ultra.exe (where xx is the 
	firmware version number).

6.	At the DOS prompt, type ultra and press Enter.

7.	At the "Which COM Port is connected to UltraTrak?" prompt type COMx 
	and press Enter (where x is either a "1" or a "2" depending upon which 
	COM port you are connected to).

8.	Follow the instruction presented on the monitor and power on the 
	UltraTrak.
	a.	The following menu should display:
		1. Upload Image to UltraTrak
		2. Download Image to UltraTrak
		3. RESET FLASH
		4. EXIT
	b.	Press 2. (This is a safety precaution to ensure you have a copy 
		of the current level firmware). When done, it will return to the 
		above menu choices. Reinstall the Promise Firmware Diskette, press 
		choice 1 and answer y to proceed.
	c.	When prompted, enter the file name for the binary file, such as 
		txbxx.bin (where xx is the version number) and press Enter.
	d.	If prompted, choose the model number of your UltraTrak.
	e.	Press 4 to Exit when the upload is finished.
	f.	Remove the diskette and mark it as your firmware back-up copy.

9.	Switch off the UltraTrak power, disconnect the Null Modem Cable, remove
	the diskette and power off the computer. Allow about 30 seconds before 
	switching the UltraTrak power back on. The firmware upgrade is complete.
