Firmware Updates
CAUTION! Do not unplug the xIPU, press the xIPU reset button or turn off the CIX power during
the xIPU program update process. Any of these operations will damage the xIPU
kernel software and require the BIPU software restoration process to allow the xIPU to
function.

Important! Complete all “Prerequisites” on page B-8 before you do the following. Refer to the cautions
“Be sure that you are loading the update firmware to the correct device. Incorrect firmware
can cause the device to be inoperable. For example, BIPU firmware loaded onto an MIPU,
GIPU, or LIPU will cause the MIPU/GIPU/LIPU card to stop functioning. This caution also
applies to IP telephones. For example, loading IPT2000 firmware to an IPT2008 will cause
the IPT2008 to stop functioning. Restoration can only be done at a Toshiba TSD repair
facility.” on page B-1.
