Updating Device Software

The TC8 device software updates when you update the paired video system. To update the device, see

Unpair the Device from a Video System

You must unpair the TC8 device if you no longer want to use it with a particular video system.

Don’t unpair devices if you plan to use them with the same system. For example, if you move your video-
conferencing equipment to another room, just disconnect and reconnect the devices in the new location.

Procedure

1.

In the system web interface, go to 

General Settings

 > 

Device Management

.

2.

Under 

Connected Devices

, find the device by its MAC address (for example, 

00e0db4cf0be

) and

select 

Unpair

.

The unpaired device moves from 

Connected Devices

 to 

Available Devices

 (which shows

discovered devices you can pair with the system).

Restart the Device

If you encounter issues, you can try restarting your device.

Procedure

»

Disconnect the LAN cable from the device and reconnect it.

Factory Restore the Device

You can restore the TC8 device to its default settings. This process refreshes the device by deleting its
configurations except the current version of software.
