8.6.1 Creating an Offline Configuration File
IP Office Manager can be used to create a new configuration without connecting to an IP Office system. During the
process, you can specify the locale of the system, what type of trunk cards it uses and what type of control unit and
expansion modules to include.
This allows the creation of a configuration prior to installation of system. The configuration file can be placed onto the
System SD card before it is installed into the system. Otherwise the configuration can be uploaded to the system after
initial installation of the system.
· The configuration created must match the physical equipment in the IP Office system onto which the configuration
will be loaded. Doing otherwise may cause the IP Office system to reset and experience other problems.

1. Start IP Office Manager with no configuration loaded into IP Office Manager
2. Click on Create an Offline Configuration in the simplified view.

5. IP Office Manager will create and load the configuration.
6. Edit the configuration to match the customer requirements. This can include importing information from
preprepared CSV files.
