4.1.9 Save the Configuration Document
When the initial configuration document is first saved, the administrator must assign it a unique name.
This name should be descriptive, because the file names will be displayed in the Windows Open Dialogue
when the administrator wants to contact a particular NOMAD MXU. The document will be assigned the
postfix ".NOMAD MXU". The file should be saved by use of the File…Save menu command whenever
the configuration is changed. At certain critical times, the program will save the current configuration to
disk with out the user’s request. If changes have not been saved when the file is closed, the user will be
prompted to save the file before closing it.
4.1.10 First NOMAD MXU Communication (Initialization)
The first time that an NOMAD MXU is configured it must be initialized. Before this can be done, the
following conditions must be met:
•
The NOMAD MXU at the remote site is installed and has passed the installation tests.
•
The NOMAD MXU configuration has been created by the MCM program using the preceding steps.
Click on the Connect menu and select Send Configuration to Unit. A message will appear to inform you
that the NOMAD MXU must be initialized. Click on the OK button
The MCM program connects to the NOMAD MXU and tells it to initialize. This is only done the first time
that the NOMAD MXU is configured. You will receive a success/fail message after the initialization
request is acknowledged by the NOMAD MXU. If it is a success, then please wait the requested amount
of time while the NOMAD MXU finishes initialization. Then repeat the steps above to send the displayed
configuration to the NOMAD MXU. This time, the configuration is accepted and the NOMAD MXU will
begin to allow calls to be made (unless the configuration contains no current airtime or the security
parameter NOMAD MXU Enabled is turned off).
4.1.11 Country Code Setting
The NOMAD MXU is shipped to the installation site with its telephone interface pre-configured for the
destination country. If the initialization is successful, the country code is correct and should never be
changed by the remotely connected NOMAD MXU. To display the configured country code, use the
Connect menu command
Get Country Code from Unit after the initialization completes.
If the unit does not initialize, it may be necessary to change the code on the NOMAD MXU by connecting
a PC to the NOMAD MXU on site with a direct connect cable, and then using the Send Country Code to
Unit command after selecting a different country from the drop down list in the Country Code display.
This should be done only with advice from Nomad program support personnel. After the connection is
working, the remote MCM PC can us the Get Country Code from Unit command to display the correct
telephone configuration for the NOMAD MXU
