GETTING STARTED
Installing a New Version of Software or Firmware
When an upgrade is available, the Software Upgrade dialog box opens, and you are
prompted to install the upgrade. To install the upgrade immediately, press
OK. To
install the upgrade later, you can set a reminder (see instructions below). When the
reminder timer has expired, the Software Upgrade dialog box automatically prompts
you to install the pending upgrade.
To set a reminder to install an upgrade:
1. On the Software Upgrade dialog box, set the reminder timer using the drop-
down box. Your options are:
•
1 hour
• 1 day
• 3 days
2. Press Remind Me Later. When the specified time has elapsed, the Software
Upgrade dialog box opens, and you are prompted to install the pending upgrade.
CAUTION
The Model 8690 does not have a built-in hard drive. Desktop shortcuts, and any
preferences that have not been saved in the registry (including UC preferences)
will be lost if you upgrade the operating system or if the endpoint resets. Storage
memory will not survive a reset or an upgrade to the operating system unless
your data is stored in the Mounted Volume folder on the endpoint (My Com-
puter\Mounted Volume) or on a host that is accessible from the Model 8690.
