The installed software cartridge provides the operating
system software control of the digital telephone
system.
The system stores call cost records in the software
cartridge and, if you exchange the present software
cartridge with a new one, all call cost records that the
system stored in the present cartridge are lost.
Because of this, be sure to obtain a print-out of all call
cost records and then delete them from memory
before exchanging a new cartridge for the currently
installed one.
7.
The software cartridge plugs into the common
equipment base unit housing as shown in
Figure 3-16.
The system stores all of the class of service data that
you program into its common equipment memory and
not in the software cartridge; therefore, the system
does not lose any current class of service parameters
if you replace the existing software cartridge with one
that has the same software revision number. However,
when you up-grade the system software by
exchanging the existing software cartridge with one
that has a later revision number, there are several
steps that you should take. If you take these steps,
you will ensure proper system operation with the
up-graded software and you will not have to reprogram
the class of service parameters for the system, line,
and station features.
