System information

600 TFTP Server
7 The phone reads the configuration file from the TFTP server,
extracts the Server_IP and Filename fields, and attempts
to download the file. The display shows the message [FW]
reading...
8 The display shows [FW] writing... and the blue LED starts to
flash.
9 After the FW image is written to the phone, the message [FW]
finished is displayed, the blue LED stops flashing, and the phone
resets.
The phone registers to the TPS with the new FW version.
If the TFTP Server, specified by the TFTP IP address entered
during configuration, is unreachable or down, the IP Phone
attempts to register to the TPS to perform a firmware download.
If the IP Phone does not register to the TPS, the IP Phone does
not work. Check the TFTP IP address and the state of the TFTP
Server, then reboot the IP Phone.
10 If the IP Phone remains in this condition because no TPS FW
download occurs, check the TFTP IP address and the state of
the TFTP Server, then restart the IP Phone.
