Initiating manual software updates for the Nortel IP Phone 1535

You can manually initiate the download and installation of available updates to the Nortel IP Phone 1535 system software using the Update Software conﬁguration option.

The Update Software option uses a conﬁgured connection to a locally-managed FTP server to download and install system software updates.

New software releases for the IP Phone 1535 must be available on the designated FTP server for a successful software upgrade.

Initiating the system software upgrade process:

Step Action

1Log in to the IP Phone 1535 using the Admin Mode . For more information, see "Logging in to the IP Phone 1535 Admin mode " (page 23).

2From the Main Menu, select Settings > System Settings > Technical Features, and press OK.

3Select Update Software , and press OK.

—End—

The Update Software function initiates the download and installation of the available system software upgrade. This process can take several minutes.

ATTENTION

When updating the IP Phone 1535, it is important to note that you must update the device for every available software version between the current version and the latest version, inclusively. In updating the IP Phone 1535, you cannot install the latest version of the system software without having installed every earlier software version ﬁrst. The update packages are not cumulative, and must be applied in order.

The IP Phone 1535 will regularly check for updates every 24 hours. Should the update fail, it will retry every 15 minutes (to a total of three tries). Subsequent failures to update will cause the IP Phone 1535 to perform successive update attempts as follows:

•every 1 hour (to a total of three tries)

•every 24 hours thereafter
