Power outage (lost settings) 8x24

[28416909]

I have an 8 x 24 module and the power went out and i lost all of my settings, before i have all 5 phone lines listed down the left side of my display. Now that the power went out i only have access to two of our phone line and the rest of the buttons that used to be phone lines are now transfer buttons. so i have several issues.

1.) How do i get my lines configured, and added to all of the phones again.

2.) How do i make hans free work again?

3.) how do i ensure this doesent happen again?

Thanks so much in advance!

NO, IT JUST DEPENDS ON HOW BAD THE BATTERY IS WHEN THE POWER IS PULLED

so the phone system has a battery? That keeps its settings? ... should I replace that in conjunction with the UPS?

Perhaps i quick pull of the power will not effect my settings? do i have any other option? it took a long time to re-configure that whole system.

you can back that 8x24 up with norstar manager. And as the guys said earlier, get a new software cartrige for your system. Otherwise, you will become a pro at re-configs.

You will lose settings evrytime you pull power from unit.

There are three batteries in the KSU.......Two in the cartridge that holds the software and one on the backplain of the KSU......

If your Software cartridge comes apart in two sections you will see the batteries in the NT5B49FA section of the cartridge.....That is really the only piece you will need to replace. Unless of course you are good with a soldiering iron and can get the correct batteries to go in the unit......might have a few.
