Larscom / Vina T1 Integrator Reset Passwords or Back Door?

Several years ago we upgraded some of our offices and removed a bunch of Vina / Larscom T1 Integrators used for FXO/FXS applications. At the time I thought they were super-cool 'cause they passed caller-ID effortlessly, had some neat routing features, etc... but, they were outdated and they were shelved (marked to sell, actually).

They're still on the shelf -- and now I have an application for them. Only problem is that I can't remember the passwords to any of them (I have 6 or 7 of them I think). I had them all written down and taped to the top of one of the units, but that paper is gone (the tape is still there, of course). I had hoped I'd also saved them in the technical profiles for the upgraded offices, but that must have been purged...

I remember that there is a backdoor procedure. In fact, I have a sheet with several strings of random characters that says "Vina Backdoors" across the top -- but I can't seem to get anywhere with that.

Oh, and I have the original manuals as well...

They don't appear to be manufactured any more (Verilink? eventually bought Larscom?).

They were also sold, I think, as Lucent ConnectReach boxes. Bellsouth used them as IADs when BIS-T1 came out in the Southeast -- maybe an old Bell tech can help me out?

Does anyone know or remember the procedure for resetting / gaining access to one of these things? I really don't want to have to buy something new for this particular application (I've already messed up pretty badly with the budget).

I understand that this is sensitive information and I'll be glad to take it private if necessary.

Thanks!
 
I'm in the same boat with these units. I don't see any replies, have you made any progress?
 
I've had no luck.

We ended up using some different equipment.

Still would love to know about these boxes though!
 
I'm going to keep looking, I'll let you know if I find something.
