Upgrade the Handsets
The Firmware filename is available in a new format from the Firmware release 5.0. For example,
6825-05-00-01-0002-14.fwu. You must put the complete filename with the extension into the upgrade page.
The filename of the Firmware versions earlier than 5.0 contains the version (v) and branch number (b). For
example, 6825-210_v0470_b0001.fwu is version 470 and branch 1. When you upgrade to Firmware versions
earlier than 5.0, you can enter the firmware version and branch number without the leading zeros.
The 6823 Handset, 6825 Handset, and the 6825 Ruggedized Handset have different firmware file from the
Firmware release 5.0.
After you start the upgrade from the web page, all handsets download and load the new firmware file. The
upgrade may take 20-30 minutes to download and verify, and an extra few minutes to load the new firmware
file on the handset. The handset must be placed in the charger and not removed until the handset loads the
firmware file and reboots. While the handset loads the new firmware, the LED flashes in the order green, red,
green, and amber. The handsets automatically reboot at the end of the upgrade.
The Extensions page shows the upgrade progress in the FWU Progress column.
• During the download, the column shows the download progress as a percentage. For example, 41%.
• After the file is downloaded, it's verified and the column shows the verification progress as a percentage.
• If the verification is complete and the handset isn't on the charger, the column shows Waiting for
• If the verification is complete and the handset is placed in the charger, the column shows Waiting
• When the upgrade is complete, the column shows Complete.
