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 |
| 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. |
