After the IP Phone starts and begins to run the latest version
of firmware, the 1110.cfg, 1120e.cfg, 1140e.cfg, 1150e.cfg,
1210.cfg, 1220.cfg, and 1230.cfg files are downloaded
from the TFTP Server. After the .cfg file is retrieved, the
DOWNLOAD_MODE and VERSION fields are checked. If
necessary, the firmware file is transferred to the phone using
TFTP. The display shows the message
[FW] reading... If
successful, the display shows [FW] writing... and the blue LED
starts to flash. After the FW image is written to the phone, the
message [FW] finished displays, the blue LED stops flashing,
and the phone resets. The phone registers to the TPS with the
new FW version.

Manual TFTP Download from BootC Procedure
This method of upgrading the firmware is normally used only when you
need to force the phone to restore an older firmware version. To use this
method, the firmware must be placed on the TFTP Server, and you must
manually configure the phone to point to that TFTP Server. The BootC
firmware carries out the upgrade. To initiate the firmware download task,
BootC must be triggered to run.
You can create the configuration file with a default file name, such as
1140E.img so you do not have to change the file name each time a new
IP Phone 1140E firmware load is released. However, if you take this
approach, be sure to rename the released firmware file (for example,
0625Cxx.bin) to the default file name when the new firmware file is copied
into the TFTP Server root directory and to update the VERSION string in
the configuration file.
After the configuration file and the image file are in the TFTP Server root
directory, use Procedure 159 “Upgrading the firmware using BootC” (page
599) to upgrade the firmware using BootC.
