HI! There Techs, I have a OS100 Mcp1 V2.66 , i have defaulted system to want to upgrade software for Mcp1 to 2.76b. I not sure what the defaulted values are suppose to be for ethernet program they seem to have stayed the same , i tried to change them to what my older manual say they should be . but there are less digits and i can't seem to be able to you use the keypad functions to shorten up the ip address..I just want to be able to connect my laptop and use the OSM launchpad and Install tool.Can some one PM me if there is senstive tech info??I have tried the serial connection also,For the land connection i did use a cross-over cable. :shrug:

When changing the IP in the mmc you were talking about. You should use all 3 numerals (eg:010.012.013.014) and once you change it you need to reset the system. Oh and do it through the keyset not the OSM.

IT tool does not work on the 100

HI! WR.. to get the laptop to work directly to the MCP1 i need a crossover?? And what does the PCMMC ip address suppose to be and SYS.IP & Gateway ?? Should they all be whatever the default is??..Thanks Again.I don't have it connected to a network.

A cross-over cable is required if you're connecting the laptop directly. It's not connected to a network so it doesn't really matter what the IP address is. Make sure you match the gateway and net mask values on your laptop, and assign your laptop an IP address that is compatible with the net mask value.

For example: IP=011.022.033.044, gateway=011.022.033.001, net mask=255.255.255.000 on the system. Set the laptop values to IP=011.022.033.045, gateway=011.022.033.001, net mask=255.255.255.000 and you should be able to access the system. The programming manual has the default values.

Thanks Catfish it works now , now my problem is understanding how to upgrade my MCP1 v2.66 to v2.76b, it says to use compressed file *.ZPG. How do i take my Zip download V2.76b and compress it to *.ZPG?? :confused:

Why don't you go to the Samsung GSBN website, they have detailed instructions for what you are trying to do. :thumb:

CMDL I did go to the website ,couldn't find the info ,, what would it be under??? :scratch:

It's a little confusing, they put the proceedure PDF with software version 2.75b but not with version 2.76b.

You can download just the proceedure from the 2.75b software update.

The upgrade procedure isn't exactly intuitive. If you've never done it before you may need some help.

My recollection is that the .zpg file is in the .zip archive and the upgrade procedure is in there as well. I assume you've extracted the .zip file? Don't have the laptop nearby or I'd know exactly.

How do i take my Zip download V2.76b and compress it to *.ZPG??

You are not going to compress anything. Just unzip the download. You have to remove the old files before you can load the new ones, because the file name is the same on two of them. DO NOT let the system go down with no files on the MCP card.
