18.9 Debug Mode
In addition to backing up and restoring phone information, it is possible to enter a debug/troubleshooting mode on the
9608, 9611, 9621, and 9641 phones. In Debug Mode, you can save all applicable debug data in a file named nnn
_report.gz, where nnn is replaced by the telephone extension, and then send that file to an appropriate server
configured by your system administrator. You may wish to send a debug report for any of the following known issues:
· Phone resetting
· Phone going blank
· Sometimes the phone goes to speaker (and other such issues that require manually resetting the phone)
· Phone faces noise/distortion at the IPO user level (this tends to happen when a user slightly raise his/her voice)
· Lag in displaying Caller ID when on primary Call Appearance
· Freezing of phone (and other such unresponsive lock-ups)
· Contact list import via USB
· Colour contrasts
· Speakerphone quality

The Debug Mode menu appears.

Note: The option "Send report to server" is not available if the value of BRURI is null or begins with any
character sequence other than "http://" or "https://". See your administrator for more information.
4.If the file saves successfully, the Status Line on the display reads "Backup successful" for five (5) seconds or
until the user takes any action on the telephone.

request), the Status Line reads "Backup failed" for five (5) seconds or until the user takes any action on the
telephone.
