Version 2.1, 08.01.2007
Firmware update from local firmware file
It is possible under exceptional circumstances that you receive, for instance, a firmware file
from Service that you can upload from your PC to your telephone (e.g. because the
firmware update via the Internet did not work).
Precondition: A Web server is running on the local PC (e.g. Apache).
¤ First load the firmware file onto your PC.
¤ In the User defined firmware file field enter the IP address of the PC in your local network
and then complete path and name of the firmware file on the PC. Example:
192.168.2.105/C470IP/FW_file.bin.
¤ Click Set to save the changes.
¤ Click the Update Firmware button to start the update.
This setting is automatically used for this particular firmware update. The URL in the Data
server field is saved and used again for subsequent firmware updates. You will have to re-
enter IP address and file name if you need to carry out another firmware update on your
local PC.
Activating/deactivating the automatic version check
When the version check is activated, the phone checks on a daily basis whether the Sie-
mens configuration server is carrying a new version of the phone firmware or of the file
with the general settings for your VoIP provider.
If a new version is available, a notification is sent to the handset and the message key
flashes. You can then carry out an automatic update of the firmware (page 104) or of the
VoIP provider settings (page 106).
¤ Open the following Web page: Settings ¢ Miscellaneous.
¤ Click Yes next to Automatic check for software/profile updates to activate the automatic ver-
sion check.
Click No if you do not want a version check to be carried out.
¤ Click Set to save the changes.
Please note:
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.
