Chapter 4 - MultiVOIP Software
Upgrade Procedures
Whenever you upgrade your version of the MultiVOIP software, you must first install the new
software on your PC. Then, download the Firmware, the Factory Defaults, and/or the Voice Coders to
upgrade the MultiVOIP itself.
Before starting the upgrade process, view the current configuration and write down important data
such as your IP address, phone book contents, and voice channel configurations; these settings
must be put back in place after the software has been upgraded.
Two utility programs included in the MultiVOIP software are to be used only after the unit has been
repaired or upgraded. They are
Download Firmware and Download Voice Coders.
Download Firmware
If you have obtained a new firmware version from the Multi-Tech Web site, the Multi-Tech FTP site,
or another source, do the following:
Win3.1 users - In the Program Manager, double-click the Download Firmware icon in the
MultiVOIP 200 program group. The Open dialog box appears and the file list contains a single file,
mtvoip.bin.
Win95/98/NT users - Click Programs | MultiVOIP 200 | Download Firmware. The Open dialog box
appears and the file list contains a single file, mtvoip.bin.
After you select the mtvoip.bin file and click OK, the Downloading Code dialog box appears with a
progress bar so you can monitor the download process.
After the new firmware file is downloaded to the MultiVOIP, the unit reboots and is then ready for use
with upgraded firmware.
