Starting Maintenance Console and Software Modes
Every time Maintenance Console is started, a dialog box will appear. From here, you can enter any
of the 3 available software modes.

Initial mode describes the state when Maintenance Console is not connected to the PBX,
and no data files are open. In Initial mode, most options of Maintenance Console are
unavailable. For details, see

Batch mode
Batch mode allows you to create new system data files, and make modifications to system
data files stored on your PC, without being connected to the PBX. When you connect to the
PBX, the modified data will be uploaded at one time.
•
Interactive mode
Interactive mode allows you to directly modify the system data and settings stored in the
PBX's memory from a PC that is connected to the PBX. This mode displays the system data
that is currently being used by the PBX, rather than the system data stored on the SD
memory card. Data can be modified and results displayed in real time.
