Recover IFE Server from Boot Mode

You can recover the IFE server from boot mode using the EcoStruxure Power Commission software.
During a firmware upgrade, if any communication disturbance occurs and files are not transferred successfully, the IFE server can transition to boot mode.
  1. Connect IFE server to a circuit breaker using a ULP cable.
  2. Change the IP address of connected PC to 169.254.XX.XX. You can enter any value between 1 to 254 for XX.XX.
    NOTE: You can refer to Microsoft Windows Help for performing step 2 and 3.
  3. Set the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0.
    NOTE: This ensures the PC is configured within the same IP address range of the IFE server in boot mode.
  4. Open the EcoStruxure Power Commission software.
  5. Sign in to EcoStruxure Power Commission software.
  6. Discover the IFE server, which is in the boot mode.
    NOTE: The current firmware version of IFE server is displayed as IFEBOOT.
  7. Initiate the firmware update process.
    After the firmware update, the IFE server reverts to its original IP address.
  8. Restore the PC network settings.
