Software Maintenance

SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones use proprietary software programs written and maintained by Polycom Corporation. The software versions that are running on the handsets can be displayed during power on by holding down the END key.

Polycom Customer Service or an authorized dealer will provide information about software updates and how to obtain the software (for example, downloading from a website).

Upgrading handsets

	After software updates are obtained from Polycom, they must be
	transferred to the appropriate location in the LAN to update the code
	used by the handsets.
	SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones allow over-the-air transfer of
	software updates from the designated TFTP server to the handsets.
	The downloader function in the handset checks its software version
	every time the handset is turned on. If there is any discrepancy the
	handset immediately begins to download the update.
Normal download messages
	When the handset 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:
Message	Description
Checking Code	Handset is contacting the TFTP server to determine if it has a newer version of
	software that should be downloaded.
Erasing Memory	Handset has determined that a download should occur and is erasing the current
	software from memory. This message also displays a progress bar. When the
	progress bar fills the display line the erase operation is complete.
