Note that only one Memory Card is provided with the system. It is recommended
that the customer purchase additional Memory Cards to serve as backup or
replacement Memory Cards. Memory Cards should be alternated periodically.
It is also recommended that backup copies of the translation data be made
weekly, or after many changes have been made to the translation data. This
minimizes the loss of recent translation data changes if the Memory Card in the
system becomes damaged.
! WARNING:
"Save translation" should not be performed if any Memory Card alarm
conditions occur or if the system is having problems.
! WARNING:
It is recommended that "save translation" be performed after business
hours so that dial tone delays are not encountered.
Enter the save announcements command to save the recorded announcements
in the system on the system Memory Card.
NOTE:
A 10 Mb Memory Card is required to save and restore announcements.
The system takes about 30 minutes to complete this task. Because the
administration terminal is unavailable during this time, it is recommended that
this command be used after business hours. During this time period, the
administration terminal cannot be used to administer the system until the transfer
is complete; however, all other administration terminals (if provided) are allowed
to perform administration procedures.
Enter the restore announcements command to restore the recorded
announcements from the Memory Card back into system memory. The system
takes about 22 minutes to complete this task. After completing the task, the
system performs an audit to make sure that the announcements on the
announcement circuit pack match the announcements administered in the
switch.
The working copy of the announcements is stored on the announcement circuit
pack. A backup copy should be made on a 10 Mb Memory Card. The following
procedure is used to make a backup Memory Card:
1. Remove the Memory Card from the Netcon circuit pack.
2. Insert the backup Memory Card into the Netcon circuit pack.
3. Log in to the terminal.
4. Verify that the screen displays: enter command:
