Isolated Mode
If no PBX is designated as the Backup Master unit, or if the Backup Master unit also goes offline, Slave units
will operate in Isolated mode if they are set to do so.
In
Isolated mode, each PBX will provide service to the extensions registered to it and for the CO lines connected
to it.

IMPORTANT
In Backup Master mode and Isolated mode, there are no restrictions on performing software upgrades
(®
20.1.97 Upgrading the Software). However, if an upgrade is applied while any unit is offline, the offline
unit will no longer be able to participate in the One-look network because its software version will be different
from the other PBXs’ software version.
The One-look network will switch to Backup Master mode or Isolated mode if there is no response from
the Master unit (or Master Backup unit) within a preset Master Site connection monitor time.
