V70 Upgrading Manual
Introduction
This document provides information on upgrading and deploying the SIP-T2xP, SIP-T3xG
and VP530 IP phones. The following sections will show you how to upgrade the SIP-T2xP
and T3xG IP phones to firmware V70 and deploy the phones step by step in different
scenarios. The firmware V70 supports the new released configuration files M7. Please
select the explicit scenario according to your actual situation.
This document is applicable to the phone with firmware V70 or former.
Note
It’s not suggested to downgrade the SIP-T2XP/T3xG IP phones running firmware V70 or
later to the earlier firmware version. For the earlier firmware don’t recognize M7
template.
Before upgrading your phones, it is highly recommended that you first read this
document.

Upgrading and Deploying the Phones
You can upgrade and deploy the phones using the configuration files. The phone prior
to firmware V70 can be only upgraded and deployed using the old configuration files.
The following table lists the configuration files supported by each phone model with
firmware V70 or later:
M1 represents the old version of configuration files for T2xP IP phones.
M2 represents the old version of configuration files for T3xG IP phones.
M7 represents the latest version of configuration files for the T2xP/T3xG/VP530.
M1+M7/M2+M7 represent the integrated version of configuration files for T2xP/T3xG
IP phones.
Phone Model
Supported Configuration Files Version
T2xP-V70
M1, M1+M7 and M7
T3xP-V70
M2, M2+M7 and M7
VP530-V70
M7
The configuration files include: y0000000000xx.cfg and MAC.cfg (MAC is the MAC
address of the IP phone). The y0000000000xx.cfg file will be effectual for all IP phones of
the same model. However, the MAC.cfg file will only be effectual for the specific phone.
The phone supports using the FTP, HTTP, HTTPS and TFTP protocols to download the
configuration files.
Note
The following files you may need when upgrading or deploying the phones:
M1 Configuration Files
M2 Configuration Files
M7 Configuration Files
Yealink Configuration Conversion Tool
Yealink Configuration Conversion Tool User Guide
Yealink Auto Provisioning User Guide
You can download these files from website:
http://www.yealink.com/index.php/Support/ or ask the Yealink FAE for these files.
We do not recommend deploying the phones with firmware V70 or later using the M1 or
the M2 configuration files, because the new added features will only apply to the M7
configuration files.
The M7 template configuration files used for deploying the T2xP/T3xG/VP530 IP
phones should be the one released accompanying software respectively.
