RE: (ASCEND) MAX with lost code Cont.



When you begin the process of upgrading through a serial port your should first configure your terminal emulator for xmodem (when you start the load process at the console, it will tell you that it is waiting for 60 seconds to receive an upload via XModem).  As soon as you execute the load statement (for loading from the console) you need to immediately go to the file transfer part of your emulator and begin a file upload.  You generally have 60 seconds to begin the upload from the client.  The CKCKCK are just default characters that will scroll until the upload begins or the load process times out.  I usually have problems with CRC errors at speeds above 9.6 so I just let it take the default and wait.

Semper Fi!

Ascend called back, and told us to load through the serial port - a smaller
then 960k load file. So far on the first attempt, it failed. Here is what
we are seeing..


While at 9600bps through serial port.

UART Initialized
Fat Load; Bad CRC!!
Forcing Serial Download 57600bps
Please Download "thin system"...
