1600 Series IP Telephone Scripts and Application Files
Choosing the Right Application File and Upgrade Script File
The software releases containing the files needed to operate the 1600 Series IP Telephones are
bundled together. You download this self-extracting executable file to your file server from the
Avaya support Web site at: http://www.avaya.com/support
. The file is available in both zipped
and unzipped format.
The bundle contains:
● An upgrade script file and a settings file, which allow you to upgrade to new software
releases and new functionality without having to replace IP telephones.
● Application files for all current 1600 Series IP Telephones.
● Other useful information such as a ReadMe file and a settings file template to customize
parameters and settings, and the latest binary code.
● Font files
● Language files
Upgrade Script File
An upgrade script file tells the IP telephone whether the telephone needs to upgrade software.
The Avaya IP Telephones attempt to read this file whenever they reset. The upgrade script
file also points to the settings file.
You download a default upgrade script file, sometimes called the “script file,” from
http://www.avaya.com/support
. This file allows the telephone to use default settings for
customer-definable options. This file must reside in the same directory as the upgrade script
file, and must be called 46xxsettings.txt. The settings file contains settings for 1600, 9600, and
4600 Series IP Telephones.
Note:
Note: Avaya recommends that the settings file have the extension *.txt. The Avaya IP
Telephones can operate without this file. You can also change these settings with
DHCP or, in some cases, from the dialpad of the telephone.
