A product as new and evolutionary as the GroupSTATION and the HuddleSTATION, there will be occasions that
new software updates are available. These updates will no doubt contain new features, added functionality,
changes and tweaks to make good ideas better, and of course, bug fixes. In an effort to make the updates as
painless as possible, these directions are provided. Remember, it is always a better than good idea to involve the
IT guys to upgrade any device, especially UC devices,
Updating Instructions:
1) Download the GroupSTATION software file (image) from the Vaddio Tech Center website located at
http://www.vaddio.com/tech-center.php.
Do not UNZIP this file. Save the file to a local drive.
2) Log-on to the GroupSTATION administrator web pages. Default username is “admin” and default password is
“password” (unless changed by the administrator).
3) Navigate to the Systems tab within the web pages. Press the “Choose File” button and navigate to the
GroupSTATION firmware image stored in step 1. Once selected, choose “Begin Firmware Update”.
4) After clicking on “Begin Firmware Update…” a confirmation pop-up and warning will be displayed. Please
read and completely understand the pop-up warnings as it is easy to lose patience waiting for updates.
Please read the warnings regarding the interruption of power below.
Note:
The GroupSTATION will not be operational once the firmware update begins. Any end-users in
the room will be notified with the On-Screen Display that a firmware update is in process.
5) An update can take up to 20 minutes, the pop-up message window will identify the progress
of the update and when it is completed. After the update is complete, the new version can be
verified on the Help Menu tab. The version is displayed under System Information.
6) After the update has been completed, it is required to power-cycle the system. Find the power supply for the

supply for a few seconds. Plug the system back in, turn the power on and the system will boot up with the
updated software.
