Processes and Procedures
With the PS-1 chassis installed in accordance with “Installing the Processing Server (PS-1)” on
page 5-53 , you are ready to configure the PS-1 and the Base Server.
To convert an Inter-Tel CS-5400 system to an Inter-Tel CS-5600, you must first upgrade the
software, then configure the system settings. The conversion process requires that you perform
the following procedures.
1. Prepare the Inter-Tel CS-5400/CS-5600 Base Server for the conversion and upgrade.
2. Associate the Base Server with the PS-1on the LAN.
3. Configure the PS-1 on the LAN.
4. Configure the Base Server in DB Programming.
5. Reload system and voice mail databases.
6. Verify that external clients point to the PS-1 rather than the Base Server.
To prepare the Inter-Tel CS-5400 for the conversion and upgrade:
1. Back up the system and voice mail databases. Refer to the Inter-Tel 5000 Features and
Programming Guide (part no: 580.8006) for the detailed procedure.
2. To verify the integrity of the saved database, run the DB Test & Repair Utility. For the
detailed procedure, see “Database Test and Repair Utility” in the Installation Manual.
3. Convert the Inter-Tel CS-5400 database to a CS-5600 database. For the detailed
procedure, see “Converting a Database from One Version to Another” on
page 5-89 .
4. Upgrade the Inter-Tel CS-5400 system software to v2.0 or later. For the detailed
procedure, see “Upgrading a System” on
page 5-135 .
5. While the system is rebooting as a result of the upgrade, remove the USB security key
from the Inter-Tel CS-5400 chassis and insert it into a USB 2.0 port on the front or back
of the PS-1. See Figure 5-26 on
page 5-52 and Figure 5-27 on page 5-53 . Connected to
the PS-1, the Inter-Tel CS-5400 platform is called the Inter-Tel CS-5600 Base Server.
To associate the Base Server and the PS-1 on the LAN:
1. Use the LCD panel menu to navigate to Network\Current\<IP Address> to see if the IP
address for the PS-1 has auto-converted to the correct values.
2. If the correct values do not appear, use the LCD panel menu to navigate to Network –
Configure –
IP Address . Enter the Base Server static IP, subnet mask, and gateway IP
addresses and disable DHCP.
3. Under Main Menu on the LCD panel select System Menu, and then scroll down to
Gateway mode. Toggle the Gateway Mode
setting from Disabled, to Enabled. Observe
the message, Waiting for PS-Server Connection on the LCD panel of the Base Server.
4. Power up the PS-1, if it is not already done. The PS-1 comes with the software pre-
installed. After the system has booted up, it performs a self-test. When the self-test
completes, the LCD panel on the Base Server displays Inter-Tel 5000.
NOTE
The Inter-Tel CS-5400 is referred to as the Base Server when it is incorporated into
an Inter-Tel CS-5600 configuration.
NOTE
Partial Voice Processor saves are not permitted when upgrading to v2.0 or
later.
