Avaya 700217243 manual Adding New Modules

Quick Reference Guide 6 Maintaining Your System

The firmware upgrade process occurs for one module at a time. After successful completion of the upgrade for one module, the system resets after 3 to 10 seconds and begins the firmware upgrade of the next module, if required. The firmware upgrades begin with modules in the left-most slot to the right-most slot of the carrier. Once a successful firmware upgrade as been completed for all modules, all power LEDs are steady green.

CAUTION:

Before starting, verify that you have batteries installed in the processor module by viewing the display of the telephone at extension 10.
