71.17. How to upgrade POTSHUB card firmware

Before upgrading the POTSBOX firmware it's necessary to verify and upgrade the POTSHUB firmware. Use the following command debug res:ctisys cmd:l1pX lsn:13 (where in place of X you have to write the value of a CTIP belonging to the POTSBOX) to check the current version of firmware.

PCI POTSHUB Card Driver: FPGA firmware version

FPGA FW version:  8.28

The updating steps:

After reboot, check the new current version of firmware with command debug res:ctisys cmd:l1p101 lsn:13 (where in place of X you have to write the value of a CTIP belonging to the POTSBOX).
