4. Handset Administration Tool Installation

The Handset Administration Tool is a software utility for downloading software
updates to the handset and for configuration of the handset. This utility is installed
on a PC with a USB port that can be cabled to the USB port of the Dual Charger. It
is designed as a time-saving device for rapid administration and configuration of a
number of handsets. Configuration options include:

• Change the password or disable password protection
• Assist troubleshooting by recording error information

• Upgrade handset software

4.1 Installing the USB Driver

Necessary components:

• PC running Windows 2000 or Windows XP with a USB port

• Dual Charger for the Link 6020 Wireless Telephone
• Power supply for the appropriate country or region
• SpectraLink USB cable or comparable cable (with 5-pin “mini-B” connector)

1. Set up a folder for Link 6020 Wireless Telephone configuration on the PC and

download the programming software from the SpectraLink website
http://www.spectralink.com /softwareUpdates into this folder. Extract the
individual files from the zip file. The zip file from the website will contain the

USB.zip

file.



If retrieving files from the SpectraLink Installation Manuals CD, the files
are available as two separate links on the Administration Software page.

2. Set up a folder for the USB files and extract the two files from the zip file into

this folder. These are named

slnkusb.inf

.



The USB driver may be left on the Installation Manuals CD and installed
from there if preferred.

3. Place the Dual Charger on a flat, horizontal surface, and plug the power supply

into the Dual Charger and into an appropriate wall outlet. Plug the USB cable
into the Dual Charger and into an available USB port on the PC.

4. Power off a Link 6020 Wireless Telephone and place it in the Charger. The

handset will automatically power up in USB mode.
