10. Software Maintenance

NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephones use proprietary software programs
written and maintained by SpectraLink Corporation. The software versions that are
running on the handsets can be displayed during power on by holding down the

Power On

button.

SpectraLink 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 SpectraLink, they must be transferred to
the appropriate location in the LAN to update the code used by the handsets.
NetLink e340/h340/i640 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.

Updating Code

Handset is downloading new software into memory. The number icons at the bottom of the

display indicate which file number is currently being downloaded. This message also displays a

progress bar. When the progress bar fills the display line the update operation is complete on

that file.

When the update is complete, the handset displays the extension number, and is
ready for use.
