User's Manual

eCONFIG is running. If you make configuration changes using the eCONFIG, these changes
are stored in the local working copy of the database in the eCONFIG. To make these changes
active, you must close down all the DECT Messenger modules and then close the eCONFIG
using the File > Exit menu. The operational database is deleted automatically, and the
database from the eCONFIG is saved into the DECT Messenger directory and becomes the
new operational database. After you restart the modules that you closed down, the new
configuration becomes active.
After you make changes in Users, Groups, or Devices, the changes are saved in the eCONFIG
database, as well as in the operational database, and so are immediately activated.
Note:
While making configuration changes with eCONFIG, ensure that no one else is making
changes in the operational database. If there are other pending changes, an error may occur
after you shut down the eCONFIG and attempt to apply the configuration changes.
Note:
If there are monitored devices in the active configuration, and one of these devices initiates
a follow-me, the diversion information is stored in the active database. Therefore, you cannot
restore the eCONFIG database, and all the changes that you make are lost (except for the
changes in Users, Groups, and Devices).
eCONFIG (remote) on remote PC (client) in the network
After the eCONFIG is installed on a remote PC (not the DECT Messenger server PC) in the
network, the database is handled as shown in
Figure 3: Database handling after eCONFIG is
installed on a remote PC on page 15.
Figure 3: Database handling after eCONFIG is installed on a remote PC
After you open the eCONFIG for the first time at the remote PC, a copy is made of the
configuration database of DECT Messenger. This copy is stored on the remote PC where the
eCONFIG is running. You cannot make system configuration changes in this database, but
you can make changes in Users, Groups, and Devices.
After you make changes in Users, Groups, or Devices, these changes are stored in the
eCONFIG database on your PC. The changes are also immediately stored in the operational
database on the DECT Messenger (server) PC and are, therefore, immediately active.
