7. Software
Maintenance
The NetLink Wireless Telephones use proprietary software programs written and
maintained by SpectraLink Corporation. The software versions that are running on the
Wireless Telephones can be displayed during power on by holding down the
PWR
button.
SpectraLink or its authorized dealer will provide information about software updates and
how to obtain the software (for example, downloading updates from a web site).
7.1 Upgrading Wireless Telephones
After software updates are obtained from SpectraLink, they must be transferred to the
NetLink Telephony Gateway. See
NetLink Telephony Gateway: Setup and Maintenance
for an explanation of how to update the Wireless Telephone software in the NetLink
Telephony Gateway so that it can then be downloaded into the Wireless Telephones.
NetLink Wireless Telephones allow over-the-air transfer of software updates from the
NetLink Telephony Gateway to the Wireless Telephones. The downloader function in the
Wireless Telephone checks its software version every time the Wireless Telephone is
turned on. If there is any discrepancy the Wireless Telephone immediately begins to
download the update.
Normal Download Messages
When the Wireless Telephone is powered on, it displays a series of messages indicating
that it is searching for new software, checking the versions, and downloading. The
normal message progression is:
Checking Code
Erasing Memory
Updating Code
See the
Troubleshooting
section for more information about each of these messages.
While the Wireless Telephone is updating, the
NO SVC
message displays.
When the update is complete, the Wireless Telephone displays the extension number, and
is ready for use.
