System Backup
System translations can be restored by using the data on the system or on the
backup translation card.
Save Translation
To ensure that the translation card contains the most recent copy of the
translation data, the system can automatically save the translation data onto the
translation card every 24 hours. Automatic daily backup of the system translation
data is controlled by an entry in the system parameters that defaults to “daily.”
If many translation data changes are made, it is recommended that you save the
translation data using the
save translation
command. This action saves the new
changes to the translation card without having to wait for the next automatic daily
translation backup.
NOTE:
The
save translation
command blocks all maintenance commands.
!
CAUTION:
It is recommended that “save translation” be performed after business
hours so that dial tone delays are not encountered.
!
CAUTION:
Do not issue the “save translation” command when alarm conditions are
present.
Translation Card Backup
In case of a power failure, the system translations can be restored using the
translation card. Translation data can be saved during the daily scheduled
maintenance. However, if the translation data changes frequently, translations
should be saved frequently to ensure that the most up-to-date information is kept.
Note that only one translation card is provided with the system. It is
recommended that the customer purchase additional translation cards to serve
as backup or replacement. Translation 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 translation card in the
system becomes damaged.
