#REDIRECT [[Turbine Software Upgrade]]
 
 
There are two ways of upgrading the software on the IP station:
 
* Uploading the software via the web interface of the station
 
* Uploading the software via AlphaWeb on the AlphaCom server
 
 
 
=Prerequisites=
 
Both upgrade methods require that an TFTP Server is available and that the latest software image files have been downloaded from [[Downloads#Turbine_stations|Downloads]]. During the upgrade process, the IP station will connect to the TFTP Server and download the software. Install the TFTP Server program on your PC which can be downloaded from [[Downloads#Useful Tools|Downloads]]
 
 
=Upgrade Via Station Web Interface=
 
* Start the TFTP server program and click '''Browse''' to select the folder where the software image files are located

:4.  Enter the prefix (e.g. '''tsi-3.x.x.x''')to the software image files in the '''Image file''' field
 
:5.  Click '''Save settings''' to store the data
 
 
 
The station will now try to contact the TFTP server. If the connection cannot be established or the ''tftp_test.txt'' file is missing from the folder, the message ''TFTP_CONN_ERROR'' is displayed. If the response is ''TFTP_CONN_OK'' the settings are saved, and the '''Upgrade''' button will appear.

The upgrade procedure takes about 3 minutes. The process can be monitored by clicking the '''Log viewer''' tab in the TFTP server program.
 
 
 
==Upgrade Via AlphaCom XE==
 
* Start the TFTP server program and click '''Browse''' to select the folder where the software image files are located
 
:1.  Log on to the AlphaCom web interface AlphaWeb
 
:2.  Select '''System Maintenance -> IP Station Upgrade'''
 
 
 
[[File:TCIS Software Upgrade 5.PNG|thumb|left|700px]]
 
 
 
:3.  Enter the '''IP Address''' of the '''TFTP Server'''
 
:4.  Enter the prefix (e.g. '''tsi-3.x.x.x''')to the software image files in the '''Image Name''' field and click '''Save'''
 
:5.  Select the station to upgrade and click '''Update Station List'''
 
:6.  Click '''Start Upgrade Process'''
 
 
 
The AlphaCom XE exchange will tell the station to contact the TFTP server, download the software image files and carry out the upgrade. A short status description of the process will be displayed in the Upgrade status column. The message ''IPST:ERROR'' indicates that there is no connection to the TFTP server, or that the ''tftp_test.txt'' file is missing from the folder. The transfer process can be monitored by selecting the '''Log viewer''' tab in the TFTP server program.
 
 
 
'''''NOTE!''' During an upgrade of the IP station, 802.1X will not be running.''
 
''Thus if 802.1X reauthentication is enabled and is performed during the upgrade, the IP station may lose contact''
 
''with the TFTP server (depending on the configuration when 802.1X authentication fails).''
 
''If the IP station loses contact with the TFTP server, it will not be upgraded.''
