7. 2. 2 Loading Software from the Console Port Using Xmodem
I. Introduction to Xmodem
The Xmodem protocol is a file transfer protocol widely applied due to its simplicity and performances. Xmodem transfers files through the console port. It supports 128-byte or 1-kilobyte packets, checksum, CRC, and retransmissions (generally 10 times) in case of packet errors. XModem transmission works through a receiving program and sending program. The receiving program first sends a negotiation character requesting for a check method. [. . . ] You may check that in the following way. When the red LED is on, use a multimeter to examine polarity at the power socket of the arrester. If it is same to that of the power socket in the equipment room, it means that arrester is not well grounded. If it is adverse to that of the power socket in the equipment room, it means that the power socket of the arrester is set to the reverse polarity. [. . . ]
