Personality Transfer

5.3.1
Introduction
Personality Transfers are required when a phone is Express Exchanged or when the main board is
replaced. The reason for personality transfers are to reproduce the customer' s original personalized
details such as menu and stored memory such as phone books etc... or even just to program a unit with
basic user information such as language selection. There are two possible methods of transferring this
information from unit to unit, or with a master transfer, card to unit: -
• Normal Transfer is used when the customer' s original unit still powers up and as discussed above
the customers personalized menu selections etc... are required to be transferred to the replacement unit.
• Master Transfer is used when the faulty unit will not power up and the transfer is used to configure
the replacement board to a set standard.
Below is the procedure to set up a Master Transfer Card and to carry out each method of transfer
correctly.
