APPENDIX C FTP FIRMWARE UPGRADE


Introduction
     This appendix provides reader firmware update information on using the web-based Administrator Console.
     The following methods are available to update the firmware on the FX7500 reader.

       •   Update using a USB drive.
       •   File-based update that allows uploading the firmware files from the PC (or a network location) to the
           reader and running the update.
       •   FTP / FTPS / SCP server-based update.

     Use this procedure to update the following software components:

       •   uboot
       •   OS
       •   Reader Server Application (includes Radio API and Radio firmware)



Prerequisites
     The following items are required to perform the update:

       •   Reader with power supply or POE connection
       •   Laptop (or other host computer)
       •   An Ethernet cable
       •   An FTP server
       •   Current firmware file examples:
           • OSUpdate.elf
           • response.txt
           • u-boot_X.X.X.X.bin (uBoot, X.X.X.X is a filename version)
           • uImage_ X.X.X.X (OS, X.X.X.X is a filename variable)


C-2   FX7500 RFID Reader Integrator Guide


              • rootfs_ X.X.X.X.jffs2 (Root FileSystem, X.X.X.X is a filename variable)
              • platform_ X.X.X.X.tar.gz (Platform partition, X.X.X.X is a filename variable)
      Refer to the release notes to determine which files were updated; not all of the files are updated in every
      release.



Failsafe Update
      FX7500 provides true failsafe firmware update. Each partition (such as OS and platform) has an active and
      backup partition.

      The firmware update process always writes the new images to the backup partition. This ensures that any
      power or network outages in the middle of firmware update does not prevent the reader from being operational.
      In the case of a firmware update failure, the power LED on the reader lights red.



Update Phases
      The firmware update takes place in three phases:

         •    Phase 1 - The reader application retrieves the response.txt and OSUpdate.elf files from the ftp server.

         •    Phase 2 - The reader application shuts down and the OSUpdate starts. The files referenced in the
              response.txt file are retrieved from the FTP server and written to flash.

         •    Phase 3 - The reader resets after all partitions update successfully. It may also update the RFID firmware
              if it detects a different version in the platform partition.

      A typical entry in the Response.txt is:

             ;platform partition
             -t5 -fplatform_1.1.15.0.tar.gz -s8004561 -u8130879

                  NOTE   The Application Server, Radio API, and Radio firmware code all reside in the Platform partition.


      The -t parameter is the file type, -f is the name of the file, and -s the size. Ensure the file size is correct.
      ";" comments out the rest of the line.


                                                                                     FTP Firmware Upgrade             C-3

APPENDIX F CONNECTING WI-FI AND
           BLUETOOTH DONGLES
Introduction
     This appendix describes how to connect to a wireless network using a USB Wi-Fi dongle on the FX7500, and
     how to connect to a peer device over Bluetooth using a USB Bluetooth dongle.



Connecting to a Wireless Network Using a Wi-Fi Dongle
     To connect to a wireless network using a USB Wi-Fi dongle on the FX7500:

     1.       Plug the supported wireless dongle into the USB host port on the FX7500. Supported dongles are:
          •    Wi-Fi over USB adapters with Realtek chipset RTL 8187
          •    The following devices were tested:
               • Alfa AWUS036H, visit http://www.alfa.com.tw/in/front/bin/ptlist.phtml?Category=10541
               • CCrane Versa Wifi USB Adapter II, visit
                  http://www.ccrane.com/antennas/wifi-antennas/versa-wifi-usb-adapter-II.aspx




                 Port 1   Port 2   Port 3   Port 4     GPIO                       24 VDC



                                                              USB Host Port

      2.   To confirm that the Wi-Fi dongle is detected properly, log in to the reader Administrator Console. On the
           Home page ensure the USB Port Status displays Device Connected. Hover the mouse pointer over this link
           to display the WiFi dongle information shown in Figure F-2.




      Figure F-2 Wi-Fi Dongle Connected

      3.   Select Communication > Wireless.




      Figure F-3 Wireless Settings

           The WiFi dongle can connect to the wireless network in one of two ways:
            • Manually entering the ESSID (if known).
            • Scanning the current list of APs and choosing the correct one to connect to.


                                                          Connecting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Dongles           F-3


4.   Once the APs are scanned, enter the appropriate passkey and enable Connect Automatically (if required to
     connect to the AP automatically if the connection is lost).




Figure F-4 Entering Connect Information

5.   Select Connect. When the connection to the AP succeeds, an IP is assigned and appears in the
     IP Address field.




Figure F-5 Assigned IP Address

The reader is now accessible using the wireless IP shown in the IP Address field (157.235.207.24 in this case).
The WiFi interface supports dynamic addressing mechanisms for both IPV4 and IPv6. There is no provision to
set a static IP address.

For wireless IP address details, select Communication > Wi-Fi tab.

Connecting to a Peer Device over Bluetooth Using a Bluetooth Dongle
     To connect to a peer device over Bluetooth using a USB Bluetooth dongle on the FX7500:

     1.   Plug the supported Bluetooth dongle into the USB host port on the FX7500. The following Bluetooth
          dongles are supported on the FX7500:
           • Asus Mini Bluetooth Dongle USB-BT211.
           • MediaLink Bluetooth Dongle MUA-BA3.




             Port 1    Port 2   Port 3   Port 4     GPIO                         24 VDC

      5.   Optionally select Use Passkey and enter a passkey to validate the Bluetooth connection. The default
           passkey for the FX7500 is 0000.

      6.   Discover the reader from a Bluetooth-enabled device (such as a laptop). Use the host name to identify the
           reader among the discovered devices (e.g., FX7500060C17).

      7.   After a successful connection, right-click the reader icon (e.g., FX7500060C17) in the list of Bluetooth
           devices and select Connect using > Ad hoc network. This establishes the network connection for later.
