I currently have a MS8X24 and I just put in new software (DR5). The only set I can get working is 221 the rest dont show up. How can I get these lines to start working

Thanks,

Sounds scary. Did you disconnect any cables when you replaced the software sleeve? Make sure the Amphenol cable is firmly in place.
 
I checked the cables and made sure I plugged into KSU and every cable was punched down on the Bix frame properly. All the trunks show up but none of the lines show. I guess I sent ip back to the supplier.

When you say none of the "lines" show, do you mean the stations (extensions) don't show?
 
Sorry I guess I am not being clear.
Yes the only extension that does show up is 221 if I punch down extensions on any other extension on the BIX I get nothing. I do see all 8 trunks tho.

Can you get into programming from extension 221?
You might have to run startup on system.

Good Luck!!
 
Yes I can get into programming with **config or **admin. How do I run startup on a DR5?

I have not worked much with the older systems.

You turn power off wait 10 seconds, power up system, after system comesup do feature **startup, paswword config(within 15 minutes). It will default all programing and set system back to default.

I know you can default system by putting back in the older lower version of software into system.

Good Luck!!
 
executone,

That did not work. The problem is the previous software cartridge had a bad battery and I lost all the programming everytime I would unplug the KSU or the power would go out. I do have a UPS on it now but before it was fun

Jason,

When you put the old cartridge in, all the phones work?
If they do you need to get a replacement DR5 cartridge. It sounds like there is something wrong with that one.
This is really a strange one!

Good Luck!!
