2.6 Utility
2.6.1 Utility—Diagnosis
| Performs diagnostic tests on cards installed in the PBX, to identify the source of problems. There are 2 types of test, Card Test and Pair Port Test. |
| If any of the tests listed here returns the result "NG" ("No Good"), contact your dealer. Test results can be saved as a TXT-format (text) file. |
| When testing is complete, any cards that were set to OUS status must be returned to INS status if they are to be used again. |
Card Test
| Tests the relevant functions of a card to ensure that it is operating correctly. The tests carried out vary according to the type of card being tested. |

2.6.2 Utility—File Transfer PC to PBX (SD Card)
| Copies PBX system files (program files, data files and activation key files) from the connected PC to the SD memory card installed in the PBX. Pre-existing files on the SD memory card are overwritten. |
| This option is only available at Installer level. |
|
| The following types of files can be copied using this tool: |
| • |
Program files: These contain the programs used to operate cards within the PBX and CSs, acting as on-board drivers. |
| • |
Data files: These contain the initial configuration data for individual cards and settings. |
| • |
Activation Key files: These contain the activation keys used to enable the use of IP CO lines and IP telephones through Virtual VoIP cards and upgrade the software. |
|
| Not all files that are copied using this tool are automatically made active. To install new program files, main system data, or activation key for software upgrade to the PBX, use the System Reset—Reset by the Command utility (see 2.6.20 Utility—System Reset—Reset by the Command) for PMMPR, DMSYS, and LIC files. Use the Refresh Activation Key utility (see 2.6.19 Utility—Refresh Activation Key ) for other LIC files, and the SD Card File View and Load utility (see 2.6.4 Utility—SD Card File View and Load) for all other files. |
|
| The PBX examines the header information of a file to determine 2 things: whether the file contains supported data, and which system component the file applies to. |
| Only files whose header information matches that of a system file supported by the PBX can be transferred. Attempting to transfer any other type of file results in an error message. |
|
| The names of all files that can be stored on the SD memory card are as follows: |

|
| Downloading the DMSYS system data file allows you to make a backup of the configuration of the PBX. |
| The error data files are snapshots of the configuration of the PBX taken automatically when a major error causes a system reset. They can be analyzed by your dealer to identify the source of a problem. If there is only one error data file, its name will be $SYSERR. If there is more than one file, the files will be numbered in chronological order, up to a maximum of 9 files. |
