Upgrade Procedures

Whenever you upgrade your version of the MultiVOIP 400/800 software, you must first install the new software on your PC. Then, download the Firmware, Factory Defaults, and Voice Coders, to upgrade the MultiVOIP 400/800.

Before starting the upgrade process, view the current configuration and write down important data such as your IP address and voice channel configurations. These settings must be put back in place after upgrading the software. Multi-Tech also recommends that you click Print in the Phone Directory Database dialog box to print a copy of the phone directory contents.

Three utility programs included in the MultiVOIP 400/800 software are to be used only after the unit has been repaired or upgraded. They are Download Firmware and Download Voice Coders.
