Version 11.5 is a further development of functionality in 11.2. This means that not all functions available in 11.3 are also available in 11.5. Note that the missing functions are very customer project specific and that most of the installations using 11.3.3.x are not impacted by this at all. However, if you have an installation which relies on these functions, and it is operating as required, you are advised not to upgrade to 11.5.3.4.

AMC-IP Processor Board (Black)

This article describes how to upgrade the software in an AlphaCom server, running a black AMC-IP board (hardware revision 5 or later).

This is the currently produced AMC-IP board. It replaced the red AMC-IP board (hardware revision 4) in 2010.

The software 12.5.3.4 and software 13.1.3.13 are supported only on the black AMC IP boards. The red AMC-IP board is not supported.


Backup customer data

Configuration data will get lost after the upgrade.

The customer data MUST be backed up by doing a GetAll operation from AlphaPro before the upgrade is performed.

Software Upgrade

  • For AMC 12.5.3.4: Download the file bsp_32.00.3.1_AS_12.5.3.4.apkg. This file contains the AMC-IP software version 12.5.3.4, as well as security updates.
  • For AMC 13.1.3.13: Please Download and install BSP 32.3.3.11 first! Download the file alpha-sys_13.1.3.13.apkg. This file contains the AMC-IP software version 13.1.3.13.
  • Use an internet browser and log on to the AlphaCom Web interface (AlphaWeb) and select System Maintenance -> System Upgrade.
  • Browse to the downloaded file, and select Upload. The file will now be transferred from the PC to the AMC-IP board.
Browse and Upload the new firmware


  • When the upload is finished an Install button will appear. Press the Install button, the upgrade status is shown in the web browser.
  • When the software installation is finished the system will restart with the new software.

Restore customer data

Restore the customer data by doing a SendAll operation from AlphaPro. Reset the exchange when the SendAll is finished.
