basic question 5

[ddools]

I have to move a telephone system across town. It is a cics w/call pilot 100. Will the memory hold for the 25 mins it takes to take it down and rehang it over at the new location? It has five phones nothing special. I was told that I should not have to do anything but physically move and replug it in.
Thanks

it SHOULD not ...but it may

Good to take a backup

I'll keep it connected to the battery back up. I read somewhere in the forum that it takes a month before it loses it programming.

I've had one that was in the store room for 6 months and when I reinstalled it, the programming was still there even the Vmail.

I agree I've had them on the shelf for extended periods of time and the memory was retained. All but the time.

CICS and CallPilot use flash memory. You can leave them for 5 years and it would be ok. Just dont drop a magnet on them and all will be fine and dandy

dedmeet is right. You won't lose the memory.

You will probably have to re-set the time but that's it.
Don't take the software card out of the switch while you are moving it though.
