1140e phone -- how to reload unistim after SIP trial? 2

I have an 1140e phone that's been connected to a MCS-5100 for a year or so. We're decommissioning the MCS and I want to connect this phone to a CS1K.
Question for the group: How do you prepare the phone to accept Unistim firmware once it's been running a SIP load? There does not appear to be a method to do this, since there is really no equivelent to a "S1" address or "port".
BTW, I've tried the **RESET[MAC]## method, and it does not appear to work on the MCS SIP load that the phone is currently running.

Any ideas out there?

Thanks
 
Directions are in the SIP 1140E Administration Guide.

In short, you need a TFTP server with an 1140eSIP.cfg file which contains the UNIStim file name in it.
 
Steps for the 1120e, you can do the same with an 1140.

1.Grab a free TFTP program like the one I use: tftpd32.jounin.net/

2. Download and set your TFTP folder and port; port 69

3. Download the SIP1120e02.00.10.zip file from Nortel. Unzip this file in your file path you specified in step 2.

4. make a 1120eSIP.cfg file that has the following code in it:

Code:
[DEVICE_CONFIG]
DOWNLOAD_MODE   AUTO
VERSION         000091
FILENAME        1120DeviceConfig.dat


[FW]
DOWNLOAD_MODE   AUTO
VERSION         SIP1120e02.00.10
PROTOCOL        TFTP
FILENAME        SIP1120e02.00.10.bin


[DIALING_PLAN]
DOWNLOAD_MODE   AUTO
VERSION         000019
FILENAME        dialplan.txt

[LANGUAGE]
DOWNLOAD_MODE   AUTO
DELETE_FILES    YES
VERSION         00002010
FILENAME        French_020010.lng
FILENAME        Portuguese_020010.lng
FILENAME        German_020010.lng
FILENAME        Czech_020010.lng
FILENAME        Russian_020010.lng

# for custom ring tones

5. Point your phone to the TFTP on your computer and with the other right IP settings and start her up!

6. Mix drink and bask in your success of being smarter than all your co-workers!
 
Thanks for this guys. We appreciate your help.
 
Just change S1 address for CS1K and change the port to 4100. Then aply and reboot 1140 Phoneset. With this way 1140 will download Firmware from Signaling Server.
 
RyanEOD & martinlopez..
Jephph's 1140E is already running SIP firmware and it needs to be converted to running UNIstim firmware. The SIP firmware will not connect with a UNIStim CS 1000 so you cannot simply change the S1/port.

Jephph..
RyanEOD was close in his instructions but you need to use a 1140eSIP.cfg file with just the following (assuming you have downloaded the latest 1140E UNIStim firmware):
[FW]
DOWNLOAD_MODE FORCED
VERSION 220000
PROTOCOL TFTP
FILENAME 0625C6N.bin
The 1140E will download the UNIStim firmware and install it. Once it reloads, you can then point it (either manually or via DHCP/TFTP) to the CS 1000.

 
Ahh . . I should read more. Then yes just keep the TFTP server up and use a different filename to switch back and forth . . easiest way for me to do it.

bah . . I get a star finally and gave the wrong answer. :(
 
Ryan -- Although your post was technically inaccurate, it was still helpful for me to see the cfg file. I was able to figure out that I need to put the unistim filename in the config file.

Gwebster -- I found the reference in the SIP Commissioning guide under the mcs-5100 documentation in Helmsman -- thanks for pointing me in the right direction. And thanks for keeping us on the right track. A lot of times, folks run into these threads in the months and years to follow and they can use these corrections to keep them from engaging wild goose chases.
 
I remember the day I set up the TFTP the first time on my machine to be able to load SIP firmware to connect to a CS2100, it was interesting to say the least. Now it seems so simple I hate how I look back and think of how confused I was.
 
You can use # to comment any line in any of the TFTP-based config files. Allows some flexibility to keep the same config files but comment everything so it is not read and just uncomment whatever you want to change at that particular time.
