CX5000Manage.exe supports only one Polycom CX5000 device plugged into the
computer at a time.
Using CX5000Manage.exe
CX5000Manage.exe is typically used with a switch that specifies one of three modes:
 image mode
 diagnostic mode
 configuration mode
Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 describe the mode commands and show the syntax for each. Image mode
commands are used to update the firmware images of the Polycom CX5000 device's operating system
or boot loader, or to download a new configuration. Diagnostic mode commands are used to send
diagnostic logs to the image update server. Configuration mode commands are used for a variety of
purposes, including resetting the password, setting the device time, and uploading a device
configuration to the image update server.
All but two operations prompt the user for the Polycom CX5000 password. The operations that do not
require a password are listed here:
For clarity, Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 show only the switches used with CX5000Manage.exe. A
complete command must include CX5000Manage or CX5000Manage.exe with the applicable switch,
as in the following example:
