Power Up
The various front LED indicators and configuration switches are illustrated in Figure 14. Upon power-up, all LEDs should light for the duration of the initialization process. If all LEDs remain on, the module may not be fully seated in its slot. After initialization the Power OK LED (PWR) will be on and the red Network Module LED (NM) should go off. All other LEDs report detected conditions within the frame and the installed modules. If the NM LED does not go off, the board needs servicing.
Note When a module is first plugged into the 2000 frame, the 2000NET module
may report a momentary fault. This will clear once the module has booted up.

Status Monitoring and Reporting

Rebooting the Module

If you need to reboot the 2000NET module, either remove and replace the module in the slot or use the GUI to access the 2000NET Configuration or Network pages. Both pages have a
Web Page on page 46 or 2000NET Network Web Page on page 50).
Status Monitoring and Reporting
This section provides a complete summary of frame status monitoring and reporting in a Kameleon 2000 Series system with an 2000NET module installed in the frame. It summarizes what status items are reported and how to enable/disable reporting of each item. There are a number of ways to monitor status of frame power supplies, fans, modules in the frame, and other status items depending on the method of monitoring being used including Frame Alarm (2000T3 frame only) and SNMP reporting.
reboot button (see 2000NET Configuration

Frame Status Reporting

2000 Frame status will report the following items:
Power supply health,
Status of fans in the frame front cover,
Temperature,
Module health, and
Frame bus status.
Module health status will report the following items:
Internal module state (and state of submodule or options enabled) including configuration errors (warning), internal faults, and normal operation (Pass).
Signal input states including valid/present (pass), not present or invalid (warning), not monitored, and not available (no signal inputs).
Reference input states including locked/valid (pass), not locked/ invalid (warning), and not monitored.
Signal output states with reporting functionality (reference output).
The Module Health bus provides a means for older (legacy) or less capable modules (such as DAs with no microprocessor) that cannot communicate over the Frame serial bus to report alarm conditions to the Frame Monitor or 2000NET module. The reporting is done using a voltage level sent by the module. When a problem exists on the module, it will pulse or provide a
20 2000NET Instruction Manual
continuous voltage level to the Module Health bus indicating that a problem exists on the module but will not indicate what the problem is. Alarms and SNMP Monitoring
Faults and alarms from the 2000NET module can be reported to a Frame Health Alarm connector on the rear of the 2000T3 frame (see Frame Health
Alarm Connection on page 12) and/or to a networked SNMP monitoring
system (see SNMP Monitoring on page 24).

2000NET Module Alarm DIP Switches

Two eight-position DIP switches (S1 and S2) enable or disable the overall fault and alarm reporting functions of the module. The current status of these settings is reported on the Status web page of the 2000NET GUI (page 45), the Frame Alarm Reporting web page (page 36), and the SNMP Reporting web page (page 38). Disabling (or filtering) of fault reports can also be useful in isolating problems in the frame.
The Frame Health Alarm on the rear of the Kameleon 2000 Series frame responds directly to the settings of the DIP switches. Some media modules provide enabling/disabling of Frame Health reporting for Slot Status, Signal Loss and Reference Loss on the Slot Config web page for the media module. Refer to Media Module Slot Configuration on page 51 for details.

Refer to the next section, Status Reporting Methods, for an overview of how status is reported from the 2000 frame, 2000NET and Kameleon and 2000 media modules in the frame.

Status Reporting Methods

The frame status reporting methods include the following:
LEDs on the Frame, 2000NET module, and individual frame media modules,
External Frame Health Alarm output on the rear of the 2000T3 frame,
Web pages, graphics and text, and
SNMP traps, captured by NetCentral or another SNMP Manager Application (HyperTerminal).
Note SNMP trap information is only available when an SNMP Agent has been
installed and configured.
22 2000NET Instruction Manual
LEDs
Status Monitoring and Reporting
LEDs on the 2000NET module, media modules in the frame, and on the front of the 2000T1 and 2000T3 frames indicate status of the frame and the installed power supplies, fans in the front covers, and modules.
When a red FAULT LED is lit on a frame front cover, the fault will also be reported on the 2000NET module. The LEDs on the front of the module can then be read to determine the following frame and module fault conditions:
Power Supply 1 and 2 health,
Fan rotation status,
Frame over-temperature condition,
Frame Bus fault (2000NET only), and
Module health bus.
In general, LED colors used on the frame and modules indicate:
Green – normal operation, (Pass) or signal present, module locked.
Red – On continuously = fault condition, flashing = configuration error.
Yellow – On continuously = active condition (configuration mode or
communication), flashing in sequence = module locator function.
Status LEDs for the 2000NET module are shown in Figure 14 on page 18 and described in Table 2 on page 19. LEDs for the Frame Monitor module that comes in the Kameleon 2000 frames are described in the Kameleon 2000 Frames Instruction Manual.
Frame Health Alarm (2000T3 Frame Only)
An external Frame Health Alarm connector is available on pins 8 and 9 of the RS-232 connector on the rear of 2000T3 frame (Frame Monitor or 2000NET Network Interface module required) as described earlier in
Figure 6 on page 11.
The Frame Alarm responds directly to the settings of the2000NET DIP switches described in Frame Status Reporting on page 20 and to the selec- tions made on the Frame Alarm Reporting Web Page on page 36. When any of the fault or warning conditions enabled with the DIP switches or Frame Reporting web page are present, the module responds with a pulsing or continuous voltage level to the Frame Alarm. The type of voltage output is user selectable on the Frame Reporting web page.
Connection and use of the Frame Health Alarm is covered in detail in the
Kameleon 2000 Frames Instruction Manual.
2000NET Instruction Manual 23

Web Browser Interface
When the 2000NET module is installed in the frame, a web browser GUI can indicate frame and module status on the following web pages:
Frame Status web page – reports overall frame and module status in

tion status for the frame slot and acts as a link to the Status web page where warnings and faults are displayed (2000NET version 3.0 or later).
Grey = Not monitored (older 2000 module).
White = Not present.
Status reporting for the frame is enabled or disabled with the 2000NET module configuration DIP switches (see 2000NET Module Alarm DIP
Switches on page 21). Some module status reporting items can also be
enabled or disabled on individual configuration web pages.
SNMP Monitoring
The Thomson Grass Valley Modular Control and Monitoring System uses the Simple Network Monitoring Protocol (SNMP) internet standard for reporting status information to remote monitoring stations. The SNMP reporting from the 2000NET module provides status reports (traps) for various frame and module faults and warnings as described in Tab le 4 o n
page 25.
Status reports (traps) are unsolicited reports sent from the SMMP Agent to one or more SNMP Managers such as Thomson Grass Valley’s NetCentral. Once an SNMP agent has been installed, the 2000 frame and each module slot can be configured to enable or disable these reports through the Frame SNMP Reporting web page (see SNMP Reporting Web Page on page 38).
Note Two of the DIP switches described in Table 3 must be enabled for corre-
sponding SNMP reporting of the system components

Status Monitoring and Reporting
SNMP Trap severity can be one of three degrees:
Warning – a limitation in the module’s intended performance,
Alarm – a failure in communication with the module, or
Informational – a configuration change such as a switch setting.
The enabled SNMP traps will be reported to any SNMP manager that is identified as an SNMP Report Destination in 2000NET configuration (see
2000NET Configuration Web Page on page 46. Trap severity is read-only
hard-coded information that is interpreted and responded to by the SNMP Manager software configuration.
The SNMP traps available on the Kameleon 2000 frame and modules are outlined in Tab le 4. The web page location for the enable/disable controls are listed as well as the SNMP trap reports available and their severity.

Establishing Frame Network Identity

Establishing Frame Network Identity
The initial configuration of the 2000NET module, using the RS-232 port (refer to Figure 8 on page 13), establishes the frame’s network identity to enable the operation of the Web-based GUI. A PC running a terminal emu­lation application is used to set the initial parameters for network commu­nication. Once initial identity is established, the GUI can be used to make subsequent changes to the networking parameters. Parameters established include:
Local IP address,
Gateway IP address, and
Subnet Mask.
Note If the 2000 Kameleon frame is to be connected point-to-point to a single PC
workstation, both the frame and the PC must be on the same Subnet.

Good Networking Practices

The Local IP Address form of a URL can be used within an intranet to address the 2000 Kameleon frame’s Web page. An intranet is set up and maintained within your facility and is isolated from the Internet.
Access from outside, through the Internet, may require the use of a Domain Name and a firewall, depending upon your network architecture. Domain Name Addressing requires a Domain Name Server located within the intranet that maps the Domain Name to the frame’s IP Address. The 2000 frame has no knowledge of its assigned Domain Name.
Remote workstations are also subject to network traffic delays. Local PC workstations should be used for real-time operation of the 2000NET.
The most direct and timely access to the frame is achieved by using a PC workstation that is assigned to the same Subnet (see Figure 16 on page 27). A workstation in a different Subnet, even when located on the same router, will be subject to processing of the IP Gateway.

Web Browser Setup

The recommended web browser for use with the 2000NET Control and Monitoring System is either:
Netscape Navigator 4.x or later, or
Internet Explorer 4.x or later.
Note The use of Internet Explorer 4 with Windows NT has been found to be very
Versions 3.x or earlier of these browsers may cause undesirable results in the presentation of HTML frames.

Addressing the Frame URL

To address a 2000 Kameleon frame from an internet browser, enter the frame’s default URL into the URL line of the browser ( Navigator, given to the frame during initial setup (see Setting Frame Network Identity on
page 27), or a Domain name that has been mapped to the IP address in your
Domain Name Server tables. The URL should look like this:

http://{Frame’s IP Address}/
Example:
http://127.123.234.2/
Or:
http://{Frame’s Domain Name}/
Example:
http://frame1.xyz.com/
The correctly entered URL will call up the 2000 frame’s default first web page—Frame Status.
Default MAC (machine) Address
Each 2000 Kameleon frame has a unique ethernet physical level MAC address that is stored in the frame ID memory chip. If this memory has failed, the 2000NET module will substitute a default MAC address: 08-00­11-09-CD-AB. If more than one 2000 frame in your network is assigned the default MAC address, network conflicts will occur. To verify the frame has a unique MAC address refer to 2000NET Network Web Page on page 50.

The status of modules, empty slots, power supply and fan sleds, and the 2000NET board are presented in icons arranged from left to right as they are in the physical frame. Each icon also provides a clickable link to the device’s status page.
Note When the 2000NET is first installed or when many modules are installed
simultaneously, it may take some time for the 2000NET to poll, update status, and build the HTML pages. This is especially true if there are modules that fail frame bus reporting. During these periods the Frame Status Page may fall behind temporarily until the 2000NET board can catch up and present a true current status.
During initial polling, modules that do not respond immediately may tran­sition to a

Troubleshooting GUI Operation

The following is a list of possible 2000NET GUI and network problems and logical steps for troubleshooting them.
Cannot Open Any of the Frame’s Web Pages
1. Check power to the frame.
a. Is at least one of the power supplies operating?
b. Is the 2000NET module’s PWR LED on?
2. Check that the frame is physically connected to the network.
a. Is a cable plugged into the RJ-45 connector of the frame or 2000NET
module?
b. Is that cable also connected to a 10Base-T Ethernet hub?
c. Does the 2000NET module’s ETHER LED indicate network
activity?
d. Does the Ethernet hub have any indication that a link is established
to the frame?
3. Is the correct IP Address/URL being used to address the frame?
If a Domain Name is being used to address the frame, try to connect using the frame IP Address instead.
The Domain Name may not be properly assigned in the local Domain Name Server or in the workstation’s host file.
The Domain Name Server may not be available to the workstation. Check that the 2000NET module has been properly configured.
a. Is the correct IP Address or URL being addressed in the web
browser?
b. Was the 2000NET module configured over the serial connection
with the
c. Has the 2000NET module been assigned the correct IP Address in
SETUP (re-run setup over the serial connection)?
d. Is the workstation in the same subnet as the frame? If not:
Has the 2000NET module been assigned the correct Default Routing Address?
SETUP command?
Has the 2000NET module been assigned the correct Subnet Mask?
e. Has the 2000NET module been rebooted since new IP Address,
Default Routing, or Subnet Mask were assigned or changed?
4. Check if the frame web pages can be opened from a different
workstation on the network.
58 2000NET Instruction Manual
Service
5. Is the subject workstation physically connected to the network?
6. Check that the workstation and browser have been properly
configured.
a. Can the frame be opened from a different workstation?
b. Has the workstation been assigned a proper IP Address?
c. Has the workstation been assigned a Gateway Address?
d. Is the browser configured to connect to the correct port?
Is it attempting to connect through a modem when it should be con­necting through a network interface module?
Some laptops have two separate network ports, one for stand-alone operation, and the other for operation with a docking station. Is the correct port being used?
7. Check that network traffic can be routed between the workstation and
the frame.
a. If the workstation supports a network ping, ping the frame. For
example, using Windows NT:
Open a command prompt (DOS window)
In the DOS window, enter:
C:\> PING [frame’s ip address]
The results will indicate if the ping reached the frame.
b. If the workstation does not support a network ping, ping the
workstation from the frame serial interface:
In the frame serial command window, enter:
->PING [workstation’s IP address]
The workstation’s IP address must be inside the double quotes. The results will indicate if the ping reached the workstation.
c. If the network ping failed, there may be a network problem
between the frame and the workstation. To ensure it is not the frame, check the frame with a point-to-point connection:
Using a crossover Ethernet cable, connect the frame directly to a workstation. The workstation should be assigned an IP Address on the same Subnet as the frame. Attempt to load the frame’s web page from a Browser on this workstation.
2000NET Instruction Manual 59
Service
8. If the point-to-point connection attempt fails call Customer Service. If
the point-to-point connection attempt succeeds, the problem is somewhere in the network between the original workstation and the frame.
a. Check the connectivity to the frame from different locations in the
network to attempt to isolate physical disconnect problems.
b. Check the connectivity to the frame from inside and outside the
frame’s subnet to isolate IP Gateway routing problems.
c. Check for possible Ethernet MAC Address collisions.
If the Frame ID Memory chip installed on the rear of the frame is missing or has failed, the frame adopts the default Ethernet MAC Address.
If more than one frame in the Network adopts the default Ethernet MAC Address, there could be address resolution problems. Upon power up the frame will indicate in the serial port console window, either:
“MAC address is unique!” – The Frame has successfully retrieved a unique Ethernet MAC Address from the Frame ID Memory chip
or
“MAC address is default!” - The Frame is using the default Ethernet MAC Address. The Frame ID Memory chip is missing or has failed. Call THOMSON Grass valley Customer Service
Cannot modify parameters on Web Page
1. Press the Refresh button on the web page. Fully loaded frames may take
longer to load complex configurations to the 2000NET module delaying module response.
2. Check if parameters can be set for other modules.
If so, the module may be in a remote lockout state.
a. Check if the LOC/REM – LOCAL jumper on the module is set for
local control only. (Refer to that specific module’s manual for help.)
b. In version 2.0 and later of the 2000NET module software, the web
pages for a module in the remote lockout state will indicate that module remote control is disabled and the module’s controls on the web pages will be in read-only mode.
If other modules are not controllable, the entire frame may be in a remote lockout state. In this state, software updates to the modules and the 2000NET module are also locked out.

Functional Description

The 2000NET is designed to allow remote control and monitoring of modules in a 2000 Series Kameleon frame. It communicates to remote devices through an Ethernet connection. It communicates with modules in the frame via the frame bus. It also performs the error monitoring of the power supplies, modules, temperature and fans. It does error reporting through on board LEDs, the front panel LEDs, and, on the 2000T3 frame only, the frame alarm relay (via a DB-9 connector on the back of the frame).

Functional Description

Processor (CPU)

Memory

The 2000NET processor runs at 50 MHz. All 2000NET software runs on this processor.
The 2000NET has three different memory types, SDRAM, FLASH and non­volatile.
The SDRAM consists of two 4 Mb x 16 ICs for a total of 16 MB configured as 4 Mb x 32. During boot-up, the program code is loaded into SDRAM and the program executes out of SDRAM after boot-up.
The flash RAM consists of two 2 Mb x 16 ICs for a total of 8 MB configured as 2 Mb x 32. The program code is stored in flash and loaded into SDRAM at bootup.
The non-volatile memory consists of a single 8kb x 8 IC for a total of 8 kilo­Bytes. Various configuration information is stored in this memory.

Temperature Sensing

The module has two temperature sensors. One is located near the mother­board side of the module and is used to measure frame temperature. The other is near the front cover side of the module and is used to measure ambient temperature. The processor reads these temperature sensors through an I2C bus.

DIP switches

The 2000NET module has two DIP switches (S1 and S2) for status report enabling/disabling. The DIP switches are read by the processor through the Input Port.

General Purpose (GP) I/O

The general purpose inputs and outputs are through two relays (K3 and K4) that can be open or closed through software control.
There are two general purpose inputs. Each has two pins, and a current must be passed through them for the processor to read a logic high.
70 2000NET Instruction Manual

LEDs

Functional Description
There are twenty LEDs on the module and support for an LED on the front cover. DS1, DS2, DS5, and DS6 are for factory use only. The remainder of the LEDs on the module provide status information to the user.
The power LED is DS20. This LED is driven directly by the 3.3V power rail.
The Ethernet activity LED (ETHR) is driven directly by a 100Base-T trans­ceiver. It indicates when there is either transmit or receive traffic on the Ethernet connection.
Note Note: The Ethernet activity LED will indicate receive activity even if the packet
is not addressed to the 2000NET module.
Processor driven LEDs include the following:
•MOD
•FB
•COMM
•PS1
•PS2
•PS3
•PS4
•FAN
•TEMP
•REM OVR
•NM
•FP
These LEDs are all controlled by the processor through a register. The power-up state of these LEDs is on.
The bi-color LED is a right angle LED that is labeled STATUS. It powers on in the red state, and can be shown red or green by the processor. It lines up with a light pipe on the front cover and is visible when the front cover is on the frame.

RS-232 Serial Port

The RS-232 port is used to initialize the module with critical network parameters including a static assigned IP Address. The Ethernet MAC address is stored on a serial EPROM on the frame. (The frame needs both MAC and IP addresses.)
2000NET Instruction Manual 71
Functional Description

Frame Bus

Multiplexer and A/D Converter

The Frame Bus provides serial communication to each of the media modules for remote configuration and monitoring over a network.
The Multiplexer and A-to-D converter circuit is used to read the following lines:
Media Module Present Lines (12 front media modules, 12 rear media modules)
Center module preset lines
Power Supply/Fan Slots Module Preset
•Frame Version
•Frame Type
Fan Rotation
Front Panel Fault/Presence
Power Supply Health
The circuitry consists of five multiplexers, an A/D converter, and miscella­neous passive circuitry. The processor selects the line to read then drives the multiplexer to select a particular input of that multiplexer. The pro­cessor then waits a fixed amount of time for the circuit to settle and then reads the level using the A/D converter. Most of the input lines are con­nected to ground through a resistor.
This circuit also has protection on most inputs. A 1 k¾ resistor and diodes clamp each input (except fan rotation) to 3.3 V to prevent a bad input from causing the whole circuit to fail.
The processor should get a value of between 2.1 V and 2.7 V when reading power supply health.

Fan Rotation Sensor

The fan rotation circuit consists of a multiplexer and a one-shot IC followed by an RC filter. The multiplexer is used to select one of the eight possible fan rotation lines. When connected to a fan, these lines carry a square wave with a frequency proportional to the fan speed. The one-shot circuit pro­duces a DC output proportional to the frequency of the square wave. This circuit requires about 1 second to settle once one of the lines is selected. The fans used in the 2000 series frame have a rotation sense period of approxi­mately 3.4 ms.
72 2000NET Instruction Manual

Network Interface

Network Interface circuitry contains 100Base-T interface circuitry. Although this circuitry will work at both 10Base-T and 100Base-T rates, currently the 2000NET software works only in 10Base-T mode.

DC-to-DC Converter

DC-to-DC Converter circuitry converts the +24 V into the board to +5 V. It also contains a regulator that generates +3.3 V from the +5 V. Fuse F1 pro­tects the +24 V rail.

2000NET Software Update From FTP Server

If you are updating a 2000NET module with a software version earlier than version 3.2.0, you must use the following procedure. Software version 4.0.0 and later must be updated using NetConfig.

FTP Method Overview

The Modular Remote Monitoring and Control System is an extension of the Grass Valley Signal Management System (SMS) routing system and uses the same File Transfer Protocol (FTP) technique to download software.
Note This procedure assumes your Local FTP Server computer is a 32-bit
Windows host running Win95, 98, NT or later.
If you do not have an FTP server, Grass Valley provides a free FTP server package that is easy to install and operate. This procedure assumes you will use the Xitami FTPD provided. If you already have an FTPD available, you can skip steps 3 through 5.
The software update process consists of the following steps:
1. Acquire the software update files and, if needed, the FTP Server
package.
2. Place the module software update files into an FTPD modular directory.
3. Extract the FTP Daemon (Xitami FTPD).
4. Run the Xitami installation program.
5. Modify the FTPD configuration files to the Xitami directory.
6. Start the FTPD.
7. Use the 2000 GUI to initiate software updates.
Note When updating numerous Kameleon or 2000 modules, it is a good idea to
dedicate one frame for the update process to avoid interrupting communica­tion with active modules.
8. Verify the software update results.
2000NET Instruction Manual 75
Appendix
FTP Software Update Procedure
1. Acquire the software update files from Grass Valley (refer to Acquiring
Software Updates on page 53).
a. Create a temporary download directory on your PC:
c:\temp\
b. Using the web browser, select the desired .fld ot zipped file.
c. Click to download the .bin (2000NET only), .fld (2000 media
modules) or zipped file. You are queried to either
SAVE AS. Select the SAVE AS option and set the path to the temporary
directory on your computer.
This process will trigger the download of the file to your computer.
Note If you have access to an existing FTP Server’s directory, the module update
files can be downloaded directly into that directory.
2. Move or extract the module update files into an FTPD modular
directory.
OPEN the file or
The module software update files must reside in a directory that the FTPD can access. The Grass Valley supplied FTPD is configured to access a directory designated:
\modular\2000
The new software for the 2000NET module (version 3.2.0 and later) will be a binary file (.bin extension) or a field update files (.fld extension).
a. Open Windows Explorer on the local server computer.
b. If one does not already exist, create a directory on the C drive:
c:\modular\2000
c. Double-click the module software.exe file (in the temporary
directory) and save it to the appropriate directory. The resulting file will be a .bin or .fld:
c:\modular\2000\2000net_sw400a_fw1.bin
Note The file name shown indicates: 2000NET, software version 4.00, firmware
version 1.0.
3. Extract the FTPD (Xitami FTP Server) files.

2000NET Software Update From FTP Server
Note This section is for facilities that do not already have an FTP Daemon (FTPD),
also known as a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server, installed on the Kameleon 2000 frame’s network. For those facilities that already have an FTPD or other FTP Service available in their network, go to step 6.
Grass Valley provides a free FTP server for those facilities that do not have a local FTP service. The FTP server package is the same Xitami Web Server-FTP package that is provided with the Grass Valley SMS router upgrade package. The version of the Xitami Web-FTP server dis­tributed with module software upgrades is for a 32-bit Windows host.
The FTP Daemon in the temporary directory is a self-extracting file (ftpd.exe). To extract the files:
a. Open Windows Explorer and find the ftpd.exe file.
b. Double click on the .exe file and extract the files to C:\temp.
These files will be extracted:
xic3223c.exe – the Xitami installation file,
defaults.cfg – an FTPD configuration file that has been modified specifically for Grass Valley software downloads, and
ftpusers.sms – the FTPD’s admin file specifying user names and passwords network access to files in the ftp server directories.

Password Protection for Software Upgrades
The FTPD distributed for software downloads provides user name and password protection for software updates. User name and password entry is required in the Software Update web pages.
The assignment of user names and passwords for a given FTP root direc­tory is administered by editing the ftpuser.sms file included in the FTPD distribution (see Step 3 of this procedure). This file initially contains the default user name and password (user name: moduser, password: moduser) for access to the modular root directory and instructions for setting up an account.
The contents of the file are shown in Figure 59. (The file also includes the SMS7000 account for customers with Thomson Grass Valley SMS routers.)

h. Submit the form and start the update process by entering the user
name and password and clicking on
By default, the Xitami Server has been configured to accept a user name of “moduser” and a password of “moduser” for the modular root directory. This may be changed by modifying the ftpusers.sms file in the C:\Program Files\Xitami directory (see Password Protec-
tion for Software Upgrades on page 84).
Apply.
After you click on the Progress Monitor (Figure 61 on page 87).
If an incorrect file name or password is entered, the Progress Monitor will report the condition and allow you to go back to the Software download page and re-enter the correct information.
The module software compatibility check uses compatibility infor­mation included in the Field Update File to ensure that the new soft­ware was intended for this module. In the event that there is a mismatch, the Net Board will abort the upgrade.
Note Do not make any changes to the web page during the software download.
i. Once the download has started, wait for the Success message at the
end of the Progress Monitor screen to appear (Figure 61 on page 87) and allow the frame to reboot before making any web page changes. Click on the
