      set chassisAddr  {ipaddress of chassis}
       
      # Connect to a chassis
      puts "Connecting $chassisAddr"
      stc::connect $chassisAddr
       
      set thefirmdir "C:/Firmware/x.xx.xxxx"
       
      puts [stc::perform setfirmwarearchivesdir -dir $thefirmdir ]
       
      after 2000
       
        set hPChassisMan [stc::get system1 -children-physicalchassismanager]
        puts " hPChassisMan $hPChassisMan"
       
        set hPChassis [stc::get $hPChassisMan -children-physicalchassis]
       
        puts "hPChassis $hPChassis"
       
      # Get the handle to the physical test modules
      set moduleHandles [stc::get $hPChassisMan -children-physicaltestmodule]
      puts "moduleHandles $moduleHandles"
       
      puts [stc::perform InstallFirmware  -EquipmentList $moduleHandles -Version 5.09.9136 ]
       
      puts "it should get done soon"
