AT&T System 25 - Manual (Page 59)

INSTALLATION
Cold Start the System
To ensure that the system recognizes the current position of the CPs, you
must cold start the system before beginning initialization. A cold start causes
the system to check all slots for valid CP types and assign default
translations to ail ports (except auxiliary trunk ports).
A limited cold start is available. The limited cold start does not assign default
translations to ports.
The limited cold start is useful if the customer’s dial
plan is significantly different from the System 25 default plan. You do not
have to delete the default codes before you enter the true dial plan. See the
Administration Manual (555-540-500) for a listing of default translations
provided in Release 3 systems.
The time required for a cold start depends on the number of CPs in the
system, but is usually several minutes. A limited cold start takes about 30
seconds.
Follow these steps to manually start the system from the SAT:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Connect the SAT to the CPU/Memory CP administration port, (leg 1
of the octopus cable).
If the SAT has a selectable baud rate, set it to 1200 baud.
Be sure transmission parity is set to none, with the parity bit set to
space (0).
Turn the terminal on and press the carriage return key once or twice.
On most terminals, this key is <RETURN> or <ENTER>.
After communication with the system is established, a prompt is
displayed:
Enter Password ->
Enter SYSTEM25 and press <RETURN>. The main menu will now
be displayed along with the prompt:
Make one selection from menu ->
Enter 9 (for the SAVE/RESTORE selection) and press <RETURN>.
