Make sure that the terminal-emulation program supports one of 
the following file transfer protocols: Xmodem, Xmodem-1K, or 
Xmodem-CRC. 

To transfer the firmware image file:

1 Obtain the file that contains the firmware image from the 3Com 

World Wide Web site:

2 Copy the file to the PC.

3 Connect the console port to the PC. (See “Connecting the Console Port” 

earlier in this appendix.)

4 Log on. (See “Logging On” earlier in this appendix.)

The hub enters file transfer mode and prompts you to begin the

The C character indicates that the hub is waiting for the 
terminal-emulation program to send a file.

If you want to stop the file transfer at this point, press Esc.

6 From the terminal-emulation program, select the appropriate 

command to send a file using the Xmodem, Xmodem-1K, or 
Xmodem-CRC protocol. 

This command varies, depending on the terminal-emulation program. 
Some programs call this operation uploading a file.
