Initiating Instant Firmware Update via Update Server
Important: Only available for operation on the PBXs COMpact 3000 analogue/ISDN/VoIP, COMpact 5010 VoIP, COMpact 5020 VoIP, COMpact 4000, COMpact 5000/R, COMpact 5200/R, COMpact 5500R and COMmander 6000/R/RX. On the other PBXs a manual firmware update can be performed instead.
Proceed as follows:
•
Using the telephone
 
Requirements:
•
The PBX connected to broadband Internet access
•
The address of the update server configured in the PBX
•
A DNS server, Gateway and, if necessary, an HTTP proxy server configured in the PBX
 
1.
Press the Menu key and open the menu settings > synchronisation > firmware update.
2.
Confirm with OK.
The firmware update and a reboot are performed. After this, a message appears in the display indicating whether the update was successful.
3.
Confirm with OK.
 
Further steps:
•
Once you have carried out the firmware update, you can distribute the new firmware version from this telephone to all the other system telephones COMfortel 1200/1400/1600/2600 connected to the PBX. If there are system telephones of a different model, an additional manual firmware update has to be done.
•
In order to use the new features after a firmware update you usually require a new version of the configuration software COMfortel Set as well as a new version of the Advanced Information. You can find both on the Internet (Auerswald: www.auerswald.de/service, FONtevo: support.fontevo.com).
•
In order to use the new features after a firmware update of the telephone, an update of the PBX firmware is often necessary (see Advanced Information of the PBX).
