TB7300 Installation and Operation Manual Working with Base Stations from Your PC 43© Tait Limited November 20164.4.6 Preparing to Download FirmwareNew versions of base station firmware are remotely downloaded to basestations from a package server (a web server application). You can set up asingle computer to be the central package server for all the base stations onyour network, using a web server of your choice. Tait also provides theMongoose1 web server as part of the base station firmware package for usewith a temporary package server, such as a laptop.The base station firmware package can be downloaded as a zip file fromthe Tait support website.This procedure describes using the Mongoose web server.Installing theFirmware PackageThe installation procedure copies files into a folder and adds items to theWindows Start menu (Start > Programs > Tait Applications > TB93002 ).From the Start menu you can then access the Help, licenses, manuals andrelease notes for each firmware package, and also start Mongoose.You do not have to install Mongoose to make it work, because it is aself-contained executable file. Once started, it will run in the back-ground until stopped, or the computer is shut down. Mongoose mustalso run from the same folder as the firmware files.1. Save the zip file to a suitable location on the hard drive of the pack-age server computer.2. Extract the zip file, then navigate to the root folder and double-clickTB9300.msi to run the Windows installer.Notice Tait recommends that the maximum length of the path to thelocation of the extracted files is 100 characters. Using a longer path maycause the files to be extracted incorrectly.1. Mongoose runs on Windows only.2. The TB7300 is designed to use the same firmware and download systemas the TB9300.
