Technical Documentation

General

Together with a telephone specific adapter, the FPS–4 Prommer permits
updating of the basic software, i.e. programming the flash memory on the
NHE–8/9 cellular telephone. The Flash Prommer is operated by means of
separate DOS software installed on the PC hard disk before use. All
interconnection cables necessary for connecting the unit to the PC are
contained in the Prommer sales package.

Notes :

• FPS–4 CANNOT BE USED to program NHE–1/3/4 phone; neither can an older, FPS–3
Prommer used to program NHE–8/9 phone.

• Prommer program FPS4.EXE does not work under Windows.

• NEVER DISCONNECT FLA–6 OR SCS–4D FROM PHONE DURING PROGRAMMING!

Equipment Required

• IBM compatible PC, processor 80286 or faster, approx. 1 Mb free hard

disk space, at least 400 kbytes RAM, a free serial port (COM1 – CO
M4), a free parallel port (LPT1 – LPT3), operating system MS–DOS

5.00 or later (3.X sufficient on manual installation).

FPS–4 Flash Programmer

• FPS–4 Flash Prommer with cabling.

• DC power supply 9–14 V for FPS–4; e.g. ACS–2.

• FLA–6 Flash adapter for NHE–8 and NHE–9 phones.

• SCS–4D Power cable for NHE–8 and NHE–9 phones.

• Regulated 6 V power supply for SCS–4D.

• FPS–4 program.

• MCU diskette for NHE–8, MCU diskette for NHE–9.

Connecting FPS–4

Notes:

• As against earlier practice, a parallel cable can be connected also to printer port LPT2 or

LPT3.

• It is also possible to hold the PKD–1 protection key (“dongle”) at the printer port at the same

time.

• PC serial port can be selected freely between COM1 and COM4. With older serial port drivers
(8250 UART), there may be problems in data transmission. The recommendation is to use
16450/16550 UARTs in that case.

•

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN CONNECTING FLA–6 TO PHONE. FIRST REMOVE
THE SIM CARD, THEN CAREFULLY FIT FLA–6 IN PLACE. NOW MAKE SURE THAT THE
DC POWER SUPPLY IS TURNED OFF AND THEN CONNECT THE CABLE SCS–4D TO THE
PHONE.

•

6 Vdc supply for SCS–4D flash battery must be comparatively well regulated voltage.

Installing Software

The FPS–4 program diskette contains a setup utility program. Insert the
diskette into drive A, change current disk drive to A: and enter command
“SETUP C:\FPS4”. The program starts and asks whether you want to
create a subdirectory on the hard disk, copies the files and asks you to
specify the equipment you are using.

FPS–4 Flash Programmer

Note : You do not have to clear the prommer memory if it is not corrupted. The default
value for clearing is ’N’ and this will be selected within 5 seconds.

The prommer setup utility starts and begins to download prommer code
from PC hard disk into prommer memory

FPS–4 Flash Programmer

The program downloads four different types of code (FPGA code,
Application code, Secondary boot code and Flash algorithm code) on the
prommer,after which you will receive notice of a successful update:

Technical Documentation

In case you want to change connections on the PC, it is not necessary to
re–run the setup program: just start the program with command FPS4 –S
to get the setup menu and change settings as necessary.

Now it will only be necessary to copy the phone model’s specific MCU
software from the diskette to the hard disk. Change the MCU diskette into
the drive and enter command “XCOPY A:\. C:\FPS4”.

The program is now ready for use.
