Appendix E.  FLASH UPGRADING 
The CDM-570/570L eliminates the need for updating firmware by physically replacing 
EPROMs. Instead, the CDM-570/570L modem uses ‘flash memory’ technology 
internally, and new firmware can be uploaded to the unit from an external PC, as follows: 
 
 
Go to: www.comtechefdata.com 
 
Click on: downloads 
 
Click on: flash upgrades 
 
This makes software upgrading very simple, and updates can now be sent via the Internet, 
E-mail, or on disk. The upgrade can be performed without opening the unit, by simply 
connecting the modem to the USB or Ethernet port of a computer.  
 
E.1 
Ethernet FTP Upload Procedure 
1.  Identify the reflashable product, firmware number, and version for download. 
 
The current base modem M&C version can be viewed at the top level menu of the 
front panel display (press “CLR” button several times to view). Also, you can find 
the firmware information within the <Util > <Firmware > <Info> <Image#1, 
Image#2 > menu tree. 
 
Using serial remote control, you can query the firmware revision levels with the  
 
<0/SWR? Command. (Abbreviated) 
Or 
<)/FRW? Command (Detailed) 
 
2.  Create a temporary directory (folder) on your PC. 
 
Windows: Select File > New > Folder > and rename the New Folder to "temp" or 
another convenient and unused name.  Assuming "temp" works, you should now 
have a "c:\temp" folder created.
