Avaya 9608 - Downloading Text Language Files

Note:
Enclose all data in quotation marks for proper interpretation.
• GET commands, of the form GET filename . The telephone will attempt to download the
file named by filename, and if it is successfully obtained, it will be interpreted as an
additional settings file, and no additional lines will be interpreted in the original file. If the
file cannot be obtained, the telephone will continue to interpret the original file.
The Avaya-provided upgrade file includes lines that tell the telephone to GET
46xxsettings.txt and 46xxsettings.scr. These lines cause the telephone to use HTTP/
HTTPS to attempt to download the file specified in the GET command. If the file is obtained,
its contents are interpreted as an additional script file. That is how your settings are changed
from the default settings. If the file cannot be obtained, the telephone continues processing
the upgrade script file. The upgrade script file is processed so that if there is no 46xxsettings.scr
file, the telephone looks for a 46xxsettings.txt file. If the settings file is successfully obtained
but does not include any setting changes the telephone stops using HTTP. This happens when
you initially download the script file template from the Avaya support Web site, before you make
any changes. When the settings file contains no setting changes, the telephone does not go
back to the upgrade script file.
The settings file is under your control and is where you can identify non-default option settings,
application-specific parameters, etc. You can download a template for this file from the Avaya
support Web site. See Chapter 7 in the Avaya one-X™ Deskphone H.323 Administrator Guide
for details about specific parameter values. You need only specify settings that vary from
defaults, although specifying defaults is harmless.
Downloading text language files
Language files that will be used for text entry and display purposes must be stored
in the same location as the 46xxsettings file or under the HTTP Server directory,
defined using the SET HTTPDIR HTTP server directory path command.
You can download a new language file version only if the filename differs from the
language file previously downloaded. Alternately, you can remove the old language
file using an empty SET LANGxFILE command in the 46xxsettings file before
downloading a language file with the same filename.
