1.2 Software Modes

Maintenance Console has 3 modes of operation: Initial mode, Batch mode and Interactive mode.
Initial mode
This is the state of the software when no system data is open for modification, and the PC is not currently communicating with the PBX. The software enters this mode if launched without connecting to the PBX.
Batch mode
Batch mode allows you to create new system data files, and make modifications to system data files stored on your PC, without being connected to the PBX. The edited system data files can be uploaded to the PBX later using Interactive mode. To enter Batch mode, select an option from the File menu.
Interactive mode
Interactive mode allows you to directly modify the system data and settings stored in the PBX's memory from a PC that is connected to the PBX. Data can be modified and results displayed in real time. In addition, when no system data setting windows are open, maintenance operations such as firmware upgrade can be performed. To enter Interactive mode, check the Connect to PBX box on the password entry window when starting up Maintenance Console, or select an option from the Connect menu.
When a new window is opened and the relevant data is downloaded from the PBX, that data is cached temporarily in the PC. To reduce data transfer times, when the same window is reopened within the same programming session (without disconnecting the PC from the PBX), the cached data is used.
The table below shows which options can be accessed from each mode.
Certain options in each mode are only available when one or more system data setting windows are open, or no windows are open.
The letter "A" indicates the state where no windows are open.
The letter "B" indicates the state where one or more windows are open.
