Saving and Restoring Announcements
Integrated announcements on the announcement circuit pack can be uploaded to
the system removable media or disk with the save announcements command.
Likewise, integrated announcements can be downloaded to the announcement
circuit pack with the restore announcements command. Both commands
require a free system port, an announcement data module administered on the
announcement circuit pack and, if saving to removable media, a non-write
protected removable media cartridge in the removable media drive. Typical
announcement uploads or downloads take 30 to 45 minutes, depending on
system traffic.
The system automatically attempts to download to the announcement circuit pack
5 minutes after it is inserted. This automatic download procedure may be aborted
or preempted by any of the following:
An announcement is recorded within 10 minutes of circuit pack insertion.
An announcement download is invoked sooner with the restore
announcements command.
An announcement data module is not administered or is busy.
A system access port is not available.
There is no removable media cartridge in the system when saving to
removable media.
The removable media or disk does not have a valid announcement file.
!
WARNING:
Every alarm is upgraded to MAJOR when the BASE Tone Generator is set to
12. (France).
8-122 Issue 1 May 2002
NOTE:
If the announcement file becomes corrupted, the only solution is to
re-record every announcement.
