6.14 DTE Port Maintenance
The DTE port on the back of IP Office control units is not normally used when configuring an IP Office system. However, in
extreme cases, the DTE port can be used to default the system's configuration or to erase it core software if necessary.
· WARNING
Due to the nature of the actions in this section, they should only be performed if absolutely necessary to return a
system back to working order. In all cases, you must make every effort to ensure that you have a backup copy of
the system configuration.
· The DTE ports on IP Office expansion modules are not used for any maintenance or diagnostics.
6.14.1 DTE Port Settings
These ports are found on the rear of all IP Office control units and external expansion modules. The DTE ports on external
expansion modules are not used.
The RS232 DTE ports on the control units can be used for system maintenance and connection of serial terminal adaptors.
On IP400 control units the port can also be used for connection of the IP Office serial port licence key dongle.
An asynchronous terminal program such as HyperTerminal is also required. Configure this for operation via a PC serial
port, as follows:
