Note
:
1
To use the Dolphin Upgrade Wizard the TCP/IP stack must be installed in the default Dolphin
directory, C:\DOLPHIN\RFSTACK. You can ignore the steps to update the Bootloader, ROM
Image and HHP Demo.
2
:You must use the –D option to recreate the directory structure, if you
forget, you will need to remove the files and re-install the TCP/IP Stack.
Note: Only individuals with network experience and familiarity with TCP/IP should attempt to modify
Dolphin RF’s TCP/IP settings.
