5. CONFIGURING THE HYPERTERMINAL SOFTWARE On the PC side, software that can perform a “terminal emulation” is needed. This is a standard component in most operating systems, and it is also available as stand alone software. Norton PCAnywhere and Norton Commander are two programs that can do this. As it is a standard component in the Windows Operating System. However we recommend that Hyperterminal is used. This can normally be found in the accessories menu. This example uses this software to explain. 1. Start Hyperterminal. 2. Enter a name for the connection you are about to make. Any name can be used, we recommend using a name that is easy to remember, as you will be able to save and recall this file later. Choose an icon for the file. 3. Under “Connect using” select the COM port that you have connected the cables to. Please note that this differs from computer to computer, but as the cables need to be connected directly to the port, a selection that lists “direct to COM x”, where x is the selected port, is correct. Normally this is COM 1 or COM 2. See below figure for reference. PROXIMA ASA 5 FLASH UPGRADE USER GUIDE IMPRESSION A10+/A9+/A8+ 4. The settings to use depend on the current communication settings on the projector in question. Check the ADVANCED /SERVICE / INFO dialog box in the projector menu to see the current communication settings to use. Change the settings in Hyperterminal so that it matches the communication settings in the projector. In the projector menu check the FEATURE / RS-232 and verify that CONTROL is activated with a green tick. This is necessary to establish communication with the projector. 5. Confirm with “OK” and connect by clicking on the “phone icon” in Hyperterminal. 6. On the empty Hyperterminal screen, press ENTER. The prompt “ASK>” should appear. If not, go over the settings again, and restart the process so that the ASK prompt appears. PLEASE NOTE: The Impression A8+/9+/10+ needs more memory compared to the rest of the ASK A-series projectors therefore the number of EPROM’s have been increased to two. It’s now one EPROM which is called SW and one EPROM called HW. It is very important that the correct file is flashed to the correct EPROM. If you flash the HW bin file into the wrong EPROM the projector won’t start and the EPROM has to be physically removed and replaced with a new. PROXIMA ASA 6 FLASH UPGRADE USER GUIDE IMPRESSION A10+/A9+/A8+ 6. SENDING THE FILE (SW&HW) 1. Flashing the SW EPROM: Type RRP;38400 and press Enter. 2. Flashing the HW EPROM: Type FPG;38400 and press Enter. It is not necessary to use capital letters, but the command must be written exactly as described, otherwise the projector will return “Undefined Command..”. This will also happen if you type incorrectly or try to erase text. 3. On “Hyperterminal”, close the connection by clicking on the “hang up phone icon”. 4. Go into “File | Properties” and press “Configure”. 5. Use the ADVANCED /SERVICE / INFO dialog-box on the projector to mak...
