Hello ninjas,

For my first post I’m going to let everyone know about an issue I ran into after upgrading a Cisco UC520 device to the latest 8.0.
** update: you can also use the below information to install a second language on the UC500/UC520 **

Firstly, I downloaded v8.0 on December 1st and there was another package posted December 3rd which contained an updated file, cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg, with a different date stamp and size than the one downloaded December 1st.

Seeing I had upgraded the UC520 with the December 1st package I needed to delete the file cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg from the system and download it to the UC again; as they [Cisco] seem to have changed it.

Software/Files Used

3CDaemon vers 2.0 rev 10 (download from here)

PuTTY (download from here)

UC520 8.0(0) – Software Package (download from here)

cue-vm-fr_CA-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.prt1 (download from here)

Instructions

1. Install the 3CDaemon and configure the FTP services (TFTP can’t be used for the language installer)

2. Copy the files  cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg (extracted from the file SCUE-UC500-7.1.3.zip within UC520-8.0.0.zip) and cue-vm-fr_CA-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.prt1 into the FTP folder you’ve setup in step 1.

3. Use PuTTy to connect to the UC520 device

4. Commands ran from the console:

    1. service-module integrated-Service-Engine 0/0 session

    Press [ENTER] in case you don’t see the prompt UC500-CUE#

    2.  software remove downloadfiles
    3.  software install upgrade url ftp://IP ADDRESS OF FTP SERVER/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username <USERNAME> password <PASSWORD>

    example: software install upgrade url ftp://192.168.2.25/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username cisco password cisco

    5. Now let’s install the French Canadian language pack

    1. software install add url ftp://IP ADDRESS OF FTP SERVER/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username <USERNAME> password <PASSWORD>

    example: software install upgrade url ftp://192.168.2.25/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username cisco password cisco

    2. go ahead and confirm

    3. select option 10 for French Canadian

    4. enter x to tell the installer you’re done

    Hope the above helps someone as we’ve spent close to the entire day on this. Make sure you have a full backup of your system along with the prompt and AA scripts. Let me know if I’ve left anything out; it’s the end of my day and wanted to post this before I got too lazy

    You could technically install any additional language pack using the steps mentioned above just make sure the correct .prt2 file exists in the FTP folder.
