Updating the base station phone's firmware
If necessary, you can update your base station phone's firmware.
The firmware update is downloaded directly from the Internet by default. The relevant
website is preconfigured in your phone.
As an alternative to uploading the firmware via the Internet, it can also be loaded from a
local PC. You can specify the PC via the phone Web configurator (page 106). This setting
applies only to the next firmware update.
Precondition:
The base station is in idle status, i.e.:
u
no calls are being made.
u
there is no internal connection between the registered handsets.
u
no other handset has opened the base station menu.

Enter the base station system PIN (default setting: 0000).
The base station establishes a connection to the Internet or to the local PC.
§Yes§
Press the display key to start the firmware update.
Please note:
– A firmware update can last up to 3 minutes. During the update, the handset loses the connection
to the base station. When the update has been successfully completed, the handset re-establishes
the connection to the base station.
– When updating from the Internet, checks are made to ensure that no newer version of the
firmware exists. If this is not the case, the operation is terminated and a message is issued to that
effect.
– If an error arises during a firmware update from a local PC, the most recent version of the firmware
is automatically downloaded from the Internet. Your phone should therefore be connected to the
Internet during every firmware update.
