Downloading Firmware

The Download Firmware screen lets you download an updated version of
firmware. You can download Runtime only or a combination of Boot and
Runtime. If you access VT100 using a direct link, you can download firmware
via XMODEM or TFTP over Ethernet. If you access VT100 using Telnet, you
can download firmware via TFTP over Ethernet or TFTP over SLIP. Null
modem SLIP connections can only occur at 9600 baud. SLIP connections over
a remotely linked modem are available at 2400, 9600, and 19.2K baud.
