Hi,
here is the step by step procedure for 350 series AP.. its the same for 1140 as well, only difference is to use the 1140 image instead os C350..
c1140-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JY.tar
Using the CLI
Follow the steps below to reload the access point image using the CLI. When the access point begins to boot, you interrupt the boot process and use boot loader commands to load an image from a TFTP server to replace the image in the access point.
First of all, I would like to let you know that there is a problem if you don’t see the
extensions of the files in your folders. The problem is that, when you rename the file,
you just rename the name, and not the extension.
The solution for this is:
Go to the folder that contains the IOS image and go to the tools option in the window bar.
Click on folder options
Go to the view tab and uncheck the option that says: “Hide file extensions for known file
types”.
Note Your access point configuration is not changed when using the CLI to reload the image file.
Step 1 Open the CLI using a Telnet session or a connection to the access point console port.
Step 2 Reboot the access point by removing power and reapplying power.
Step 3 Let the access point boot until it begins to inflate the image. When you see these lines on the CLI, press Esc:
Loading "flash:/c350-k9w7-mx.v122_13_ja.20031010/c350-k9w7-mx.v122_13_ja.20031010"
...###########################################################################
################################################################################
################################################################################
####################
Step 4 When the ap: command prompt appears, enter the set command to assign an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway to the access point.
Note You must use upper-case characters when you enter the IP-ADDR, NETMASK, and DEFAULT_ROUTER options with the set command.
Your entries might look like this example:
ap: set IP_ADDR 192.168.133.160
ap: set NETMASK 255.255.255.0
ap: set DEFAULT_ROUTER 192.168.133.1
Step 5 Enter the tftp_init command to prepare the access point for TFTP.
ap: tftp_init
Step 6 Enter the tar command to load and inflate the new image from your TFTP server. The command must include this information:
•the -xtract option, which inflates the image when it is loaded
•the IP address of your TFTP server
•the directory on the TFTP server that contains the image
•the name of the image
•the destination for the image (the access point Flash)
Your entry might look like this example:
ap: tar -xtract tftp://192.168.130.222/images/c1140-k9w7-tar.124-21a.JY.tar flash:
Step 7 When the display becomes full the CLI pauses and displays --MORE--. Press the spacebar to continue.

If you do not press the spacebar to continue, the process eventually times out and the access point stops inflating the image.
Step 8 Enter the set BOOT command to designate the new image as the image that the access point uses when it reboots. The access point creates a directory for the image that has the same name as the image, and you must include the directory in the command. Your entry might look like this example:
ap: set BOOT flash:/c350-k9w7-mx.122-13.JA1/c350-k9w7-mx.122-13.JA1
Step 9 Enter the set command to check your bootloader entries.
ap: set
BOOT=flash:/c350-k9w7-mx.122-13.JA1/c350-k9w7-mx.122-13.JA1
DEFAULT_ROUTER=192.168.133.1
IP_ADDR=192.168.133.160
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
Step 10 Enter the boot command to reboot the access point. When the access point reboots, it loads the new image.
ap: boot
This will get the AP to Autonomous image..
Lemme know if this answered your question!!
