.Requirements

Hardware :
    1. A PC with at least one available COM port.
    2. A pin-to-pin RS-232 cable( DTE-DCE ): one end is DB-9 male connector,
       the other end is whatever depends on your COM port.

Software :
    1. The upgrade program: FWLOAD.EXE  - It's a DOS program.
       You can also run it directly from Windows NT/95.
    2. The image file of new firmware: FIRMWARE.BIN
       The file name MUST be exactly the same one. And this file MUST
       be put together with FWLOAD.EXE.   For better disk access speed,
       we suggest you to copy the two files above into the same subdirectory
       in your harddisk before starting upload.



.Upload procedures

1. Connect the SOAR and your PC COM port with the RS-232 cable.

2. Run the FWLOAD.EXE with COM port specified.

3. Turn on the DI-701.  FWLOAD can automatically detect the DI-701 and compelte
   the upload.  You will see messages appear in following sequence:

     ->           DI-701 - Firmware upgrade program ver 2.0.
                  Copyright 1999.

                  FWUPLOAD -? for usage help.
                  press <ESC> to abort this program.

     ->           Waiting for the SOAR turned on . . .
     ->           The SOAR has been detected.
     ->           Ready for upload.
     ->           Uploading . . .
(increasing) ->   32768 bytes transmitted
     ->           OK: Firmware upload succeeded.

   If you get an error, please check the cable connectivity and make
   sure that you have selected an correct COM port, then go through these
   steps again.

4. Repower on the DI-701.
