Over-the-Air Programming (POP 25, ASTRO 25, and ASTRO
Conventional)
This feature enables configuration data and firmware to be upgraded to your radio over-the-air. Full
use of the radio is retained during the data transfer without interrupting communication. For ASTRO 25
and ASTRO Conventional, the upgrade pauses to give priorities to voice call, and continues after the
voice call ended. For Wi-Fi, the upgrade process runs concurrently with voice calls.
Once a configuration upgrade is downloaded to your radio, you can install new changes immediately or
delay changes to be installed on the radio when it is being powered up.
Your radio can also be configured to allow you to accept or reject an upgrade.
NOTICE: This feature must be preprogrammed by a qualified radio technician. Check with your
dealer or system administrator for more information.

Responding to the Notification of Upgrade

Procedure:
1 The display shows Upgrade? and two short, medium- pitched tones sound every 30 seconds
until the user makes a choice of either accepting, delaying, or rejecting the request.
2 Perform one of the following actions:
• Press the Menu Select button below Acpt to accept the request to upgrade immediately.
• Press the Menu Select button below Dlay to delay the request to upgrade.
• Press the Menu Select button below Rej to reject the request to upgrade.
One of the following scenarios occurs:
• If you choose to accept, the display shows Programming Dont power off to indicate the
upgrade is about to begin. The radio resets to install the upgrade. In the case of configuration data
upgrade, the process only takes a few seconds. In the case of firmware upgrade, the installation
takes several minutes.
NOTICE: The radio cannot be used while the upgrade is being installed. Therefore, make
sure to only accept the upgrade at a convenient time when immediate radio use is not
required.
• If you choose to delay, a configuration data upgrade is installed automatically at the next power up.
However, in the case of a firmware upgrade, the radio prompts Upgrade? again at the next power
up.
• If you choose to reject, the display shows Upg Aborted. The radio continues to function with the
current configuration until it gets reprogrammed.
NOTICE: If your radio has problems upgrading over-the-air, consult a qualified technician for
details.
