Release Bulletin 800-1121-08/B

The two issues resolved with 760 version 2.10:
A PT760 and 760XL using any version between 1.2x and 2.0 would experience an
audio artifact (noise) when connecting to an Accord MCU. This artifact is eliminated with
760 version 2.10. Accord bridge versions 2.22.293 and 3.01.337 have been tested.
A PT760 and 760XL using any version between 1.2x and 2.0 would experience audio
artifacts – periodic thumping sound – when connected to a Lucent, Avaya or Accord MCU.
This artifact is significantly reduced or eliminated with 760 version 2.10.

into a PT760 or PT760XL.

PT760 or PT760XL
Download and Install instructions for Version 2.10.
The following are instructions are for the download of the software version 2.10 for
the PT760 and/or PT760XL, a self-extracting file to a PC Card for product
upgrade. Please read the entire instruction document prior to
downloading/installing the software. It may also be helpful to print these
instructions before downloading the file.
This document will assist you with preparing a PC card for the installation of
Version 2.10 into a PT760 or PT760XL system. You will need an ATA PC Card
(Type I or II PC Card) with a capacity of 30MB or better to perform this task.
- Download the appropriate self-extracting file to a PC with an available PCMCIA
card slot.
- Install a flash PC Card into the PC, using appropriate procedures for the
intended PC and operating system. Format the PC card.
- Double-click the downloaded .EXE file to EXTRACT the contained files. (Please
note that the PT760 2.10 file was fully checked and was reported to be free from
viruses at the time of posting to this ftp/web site.) When the dialog box prompts
for the destination folder to UNZIP to, choose the drive name (i.e. D:\, E:\, etc) of
the PCMCIA card (Do not enter any subdirectory information other than the drive
letter).
- Prior to installing the PCMCIA card into the PT760 or PT760XL systems,
note all of the ISDN and/or TCP/IP and dialing directory information. Reloading of
system software by use of the PCMCIA card will erase all preprogrammed
information in the PT760 or PT760XL system, requiring the user to reprogram the
aforementioned information after a software reinstall.
- Power off the PT760 or PT760XL videoconference system. Install the newly
loaded PCMCIA card into the PCMCIA card slot in the rear of the PT760 or
PT760XL system and turn the power back on. When prompted, depress the 1 key
to initiate installation of the new software.

Before removing the PC Card from the PC, be sure to follow the operating
systems procedures for PC Card removal. Failure to follow such procedures
exactly may cause serious damage to the PC Card and/or the PC; Polycom shall
not be liable for any damage resulting from your failure to follow your operating
system's procedures.
