  • Page 46: Recovery Mode

    Recovery Mode The recovery mode restarts the Mediatrix 1204 in a known, static, and minimal state. It is used to recover from a basic configuration error that prevents you to reach the unit through the network. It may serve as a last resort before the Factory reset command.

  • Page 47: Factory Reset

    The Factory reset creates a new configuration file with the default factory values. It should be performed with the Mediatrix 1204 connected to a network with access to a DHCP server. If the unit cannot find a DHCP server, it sends requests indefinitely.

  • Page 48: Software Restart

    You can disable the factory reset procedure, even if users depress the Default Settings switch. Disabling the factory reset means that users will not be able to revert the Mediatrix 1204 back to its factory settings if there are configuration problems.

    How to contact such a line depends on how your system has been set up. Usually, you only have to dial the number of the SCN line connected to the FXO connector of the Mediatrix 1204. The call is answered and a second dial tone (IP dial tone) is presented to the SCN user.

  • Page 284: Pin Dialing

    This feature could be used in the case where a user makes an automatic call to an IVR system, and after a pre-defined delay, the Mediatrix 1204 sends the DTMF tones (PIN) to indicate where the call is coming from.
