Saving Your Configuration

When you are done programming, you must be out of a program's options to exit (pressing the MIC key will
exit the program's option). Press the SPK key. Any changes made will be saved to the CCPU.
1. Press the MIC key to completely exit any program options, if needed.
2. Press SPK. You see, "Saving System Data" if changes were made to the system's programming.
3. The display shows "Complete Data Save" when completed and will exit the phone to an idle mode.

Backing Up/Restoring a Database

Due to database differences, saved customer databases are not interchangeable between systems
●
using a MEMDB daughter board and those without the MEMDB.
It is recommended when using a USB flash drive to install it in the CCPU with the system power turned
●
off. Certain flash drives may cause the system to reset if inserted with the power on.
As a precaution, it is recommended that the customer database be saved prior to updating the system
software. There are two methods of saving the database - either using the PCPro application or saving directly
to a USB flash drive. Using PCPro, download the database and save the file on the PC's hard drive. To save
the database using a USB flash drive, insert the USB flash drive into the CCPU's USB connector and, using
Program 90-03, save the software (this could take several minutes). Due to the file's naming structure, note
that a USB flash drive can only hold one customer database (each database is saved to a directory called
DATA - this directory would be overwritten if a second database were saved to the same USB drive). Each
database to be saved will require its own separate USB flash drive (unless you choose to rename the directory
after it is saved, then rename it back to DATA when you need to access the database).
If the customer data needs to be reloaded, the method for restoring the database is determined by how the
database was saved. Using PCPro, the customer database is uploaded using the Upload option within the
application. If the database is stored on a USB flash drive, use Program 90-04, with the database to be
restored installed in the CCPU's USB connector.
When restoring a database file, as the slot definitions may be different, remove all blades from the
●
system except the CCPU in slot 1. After the system has been reset, you can reinstall the blades. You can
use Program 10-03 or Program 90-13-03 prior to updating to record the current slot definitions. If the
blades are not removed, the trunk and extension port assignments may be reassigned, depending on
which blade syncs up with the system first.
After reloading the customer data to the system, exit programming mode (this could take a minute or more to
save the database), then reset the system by powering down and back up. If the system is not reset, not all
the uploaded programming changes will be in effect. Wait a few minutes for the programming to take affect
before accessing any lines or special system features. Otherwise some unusual LED indications may be
experienced. To prevent the USB flash drive from possibly being over-written, remove the USB flash drive after
reloading the database.
