Cisco TelePresence MX Series  

Administrator Guide

Upgrading the system software

This video conference system is using TC software. The 

version described in this document is TC6.1.

Contact your system administrator if you have 

questions about the software version.

Software release notes
For a complete overview of the news and changes, we 

recommend reading the Software Release Notes (TC6).

Go to: 

New software
For software download, go to the 

Cisco Download Software web page: 

Then navigate to your product.

The file name is something like “s52000tc6_1_0.pkg” (each 

software version has a unique file name).

Release key and option keys
You need a valid release key to be able to use the TC 

software. As from version TC6.1, any TC release key will do.

For older releases the release key is specific for each main 

release (e.g. TC4, TC5, TC6). If you want to downgrade the 

software to TC6.0 or older, take care to have the correct key.

An option key is required to activate optional functionality. You 

may have several option keys in your system.

The available options are:

•  Premium resolution

Adding release and option keys
If you already have a valid release key and the proper option 

keys installed on your system, you can skip this point and 

continue with the software installation.

If you do not have the required key(s), contact your Cisco 

representative to obtain them. Then perform the following 

steps:

i.  Enter the Release key in the appropriate text input field 

and click 

. 

ii.  Enter an Option Key in the appropriate text input field 

and click 

. 

If you have more than one option key, repeat step ii for 

all of them.

Each system has unique keys, for example:

•  1TC006-1-0C22E348 (release key)
•  1R000-1-AA7A4A09 (option key)

Installing new software
Download the appropriate software package from the Cisco 

Software Download web page (see link to the left) and store 

it on your local computer. This is a .pkg file.

i.  Click 

 and find the downloaded .pkg file that 

contains the new software.

ii.  Check the 

 check 

box, then click 

 to start the installation process 

straight away.
Keep the check box unchecked if you want to upload 

the software now and do the installation later.

The complete installation may take up to 30 minutes. You 

can follow the progress on the web page. The system 

reboots automatically after the installation.

You must sign in anew in order to continue working 

with the web interface after the reboot.

Navigate to: Maintenance > Software Upgrade

Release key and option keys
The release key is required to be able to use the 

software. A new release key is required for every major 

software release (e.g. when upgrading from TC5.x or 

older to TC6.x).
