P-1PC Programming
FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
Users can program the key system using a PC. A PC is connected to the key system using
an RS-232C cable which allows the system parameters to be downloaded to the PC and
then modified. Once modified, the system parameters are then uploaded to the key system. 
An MIF-B13 ETU must be installed in the system for this feature to operate.
The minimum requirements for the PC to run this program include:

100 MHz Pentium processor
16 MB RAM
10 MB hard disk space
640 x 480 monitor resolution
Window 95/98
Internet Explorer 4.1 
Netscape Communicator 4.7
The recommended requirements for running PC Programming include:

166 MHz Pentium processor
64 MB RAM
10 MB hard disk space
1024 x 768 monitor resolution
Windows 95/98

ERVICE
CONDITIONS
!The PC port is used for both SMDR print output and PC programming. The system must
be in PC programming mode before connecting a PC to the system. This is
accomplished by dialling 
O I F from either extension 10 or 11. (Note that this
access code is used to toggle between the SMDR print output mode and PC
programming mode.) The mode is displayed in the telephone LCD for five seconds
allowing the user to verify that the desired mode has been properly set.
Refer to PC Programming, Page 175 for operational instructions.
To Switch Between PC Programming and SMDR Output Mode for MIF ETU:

!When system data is uploaded from the PC to the KSU, the KSU is updated with the
data from PC programming. During the upload process, data is temporarily stored in a
“working” memory area if any of the telephones are in-use. Once the system is idle, the
data is updated in system memory. 
!The baud rate between the MIF-B13 ETU and the PC is fixed at 19,200 bps and the
Start/Stop bit is set to 1.
!All user programmable assignments such as one-touch keys and speed dialling can also
be assigned using PC programming.

P-2Power Failure Transfer
FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
Power Failure Transfer ensures that a customer has access to the telephone company’s
central office network during a power outage. When system power is lost and power
supplied by the battery backup has expired, analogue trunks 1 and 2 (built into the
mainboard) are automatically switched to the two analogue telephones connected to the
FAX/PFT ports of the KSU.

This feature is available for use with single line telephones connected to the FAX/PFT ports.

ERVICE
CONDITIONS
!During a power outage, calls can be made from and received by the single line telephone
connected to the FAX/PFT ports of the KSU.
!For the power fail telephones to operate, analogue PSTN lines must be connected to
Trunk Ports 1 and/or 2, which are built-in to the mainboard.
FAX/PFT 1 
→ CO1
FAX/PFT 2 
→ CO2
!The signalling method used by the telephone (DTMF or Decadic) must match that
supported by the trunk it is to be connected to during a power fail condition.
!The FAX/PFT ports can be used during normal system operation to directly access
Trunk Ports 1 and 2, for use by analogue devices such as fax machines, modems, etc.
Connection in this way does not require a SLI(2)-B13 ETU or other analogue port
adapter.  Busy trunk status is provided to other telephones in the system when these
devices are in use.
Not applicable.
