The Database Save feature allows the system database to be copied to IMC8 at any
time. The procedure is as follows:
1. Verify that the system time and date are correct (press Control-T to check).
Update through the Time and Date branch (Route: TIME) of the system
database if necessary.
2. From the Database Flash menu press 0 to save the database to a file on the
IMC8 card. The system prompts for the selection of a destination file number,
either DB0.DEF or DB1.DEF, with:
DEST FILE (0,1) - [0]
The DB0.DEF file may be saved automatically at a preset time each day and
so is usually more up-to-date than the DB1.DEF file. See
Automatic Daily
Backup, page 4-13 . The DB1.DEF file is referred to as the technician’s copy of
the database, and should be saved each time installation or maintenance
personnel make changes to the database.
3. Press 0 or 1, according to the table below, to begin saving the system database
to a file. The default entry is 0 or DB0.DEF.
4. When the prompt EXECUTE (Y/N) - [N] appears, type Y to begin the save
process, or N to cancel and return to the Database IMC8 menu. The PI
command prompt (*:) will return immediately, but the system will process the
command as a background (low priority) task.
Saving the database to a file generally takes several seconds. While the
database is being saved, it is important to note that changes to the system
configuration (such as: changing the system to Night Service, setting a Call
Forward or Do Not Disturb instruction at a station, even turning on or off
Background Music at a key set) are disabled until the database save process
is completed.
If the system is unable to save the database, one of several messages will be generated
by the system.
