Chapter 7: Advanced Features
If the upgrade happens on the ASTRO 25 and ASTRO Conventional systems, the upgrade pauses to give
priorities to voice call, and continues after the voice call ended. If the upgrade happens on a Wi-Fi network,
the upgrade process runs concurrently with voice calls.
Once a configuration upgrade is downloaded to your radio, you can install new changes immediately, or delay
changes to be installed on the radio when it is being powered up.
Your radio can also be configured to allow you to accept or reject an upgrade.

Responding to the Notification of Upgrade
When and where to use: If a configuration upgrade is downloaded to your radio, an alert tone sounds and
the upgrade is installed at the next radio power up. If a firmware upgrade is downloaded to your radio, an
alert tone sounds and the display shows UPGRADE.
Procedure:
To accept the upgrade, long press the Top Side (Select) button within 15 seconds of UPGRADE appearing
on the display.
NOTE: Do not remove the power cable or power down the radio during the firmware upgrade
process.
The radio resets and the installation take several minutes.
NOTE: The radio cannot be used while the upgrade is being installed. Therefore, make sure to only
accept the upgrade at a convenient time when immediate radio use is not required.
If the Top Side (Select) button is not long pressed within 15 seconds, the UPGRADE display is cleared
until the next radio power up.
