960 Generation Change Part 8
1. Install AIMS 6 and create a new PBX of the corresponding type. Select I5 as
the PBX generation.
2. Save the configuration data using a download followed by a backup (see
"Saving configuration data with AIMS", page 900). This is necessary as the
current PBX data cannot be transferred to the new system automatically.
3. Change the PBX generation in AIMS 6 to I6.
Note: If the PBX generation is incorrect, AIMS 6 cannot access the PBX after
the software upgrade and generates the corresponding error message.
4. Replacing the Flash card: Carry out steps 2-9 as described in "Replacing the
Flash Card", page 961.
5. Replacing the RAM card: Carry out steps 4-12 as described in "Replacing the
RAM Card", page 963.
6. The PBX carries out a first start and starts with the I6 system software. To load
a more recent system software than the one in the Flash memory, initiate the
upload process as described in the paragraph "Initiating an upload process",
page 894. Select "Start Now" as the activation time.
Note: To upload the system software you need to change the password in
AIMS 6 once.
7. Once the system has started up, load the saved configuration data using
AIMS 6 under "Restore", and save the data in the PBX with "Upload".
8. The PBX reboots and is then ready for operation with the new I6 system soft-
ware and the familiar system configuration.
Note:
An I6 system software on a 2065 system with insufficient Flash and/or
RAM memory is unable to run, and outputs the corresponding error
messages. The system hardware has to be expanded beforehand using
the "Update-Set".
2.3 System downgrade from I6 to I5
A successful downgrade requires the existence of an I5 system software and valid
configuration data. AIMS 6 is backwards compatible with AIMS 5, which means
that a change of AIMS is not compulsory.
System Downgrade with Flash Card
The simplest way of obtaining an I5 system from an I6 system is to replace the
Flash card with the loaded I5 system software (see "Replacing the Flash Card",
page 961). The configuration data is also stored on the Flash card. On the 2065
