A. INTENDED PLATFORMS:

 

Elite 2 Based Modems only.

 

B. GENERAL INFORMATION

 

This firmware release supersedes firmware version 3.1.12. It contains changes to the manufacturing test code and minor changes to the CW messaging timing.

 

C. RISK ASSESSMENT

 

Low

Moderate

High

X

 

 

 

 

D. FEATURES:

1.    Additional ATE command to report analog to digital converter offset bias. 

2.    Modified ATE loop back power measurement to remove the analog to digital converter bias offset.

 

     

E. FIXES:

 

1.    CW Message Timing:  Modified transmit delay as function of CW symbol rate to ensure the first bit of the CW message is not truncated. 

 

F. Recommended Verification

ATE Changes:  Manufacturing test code changes will be verified by the developer.

 

CW Timing Changes: Verification should include testing the ability of the modems to complete power on training at various loop lengths in the binders.

 

G. KNOWN DEFICIENCIES

 

      None.

 

H. ASSOCIATED FILES

 

xx_xx_xx_e2_smrom.s19 - Programmable application and boot image for Elite 2 client or server.  Use this file when programming the flash via the BDM port.

 

xx_xx_xx_e2_smrom.sum – Text file with the checksum for the Elite 2 application and boot s19 image. Note:  Since the application is now only 1MB, this is the checksum for the first 1MB of flash memory.  When doing a checksum verification, only perform the checksum on the number of sectors that comprise the first 1MB.

 

 

xx_xx_xx_e2_boot.s19 -  Programmable boot-only image for Elite 2 client or server. Use this file when programming the flash boot sector only via the BDM port.

 

 

03_01_13_e2_smdlapp.bin – Server downloadable application image for Elite 2 client or server.  Use this file when programming the flash application sectors via the YesWare server.

 

03_01_13_e2_dlboot.bin – Downloadable boot image for Elite 2 client or server.  Use this file when programming the flash boot sector via the YesWare server.
