Change Mode

Last Updated : May 31, 2022 |

This command can be used to change the operating mode of an IP500 V2 system from Basic Edition to either standard IP Office or Server Edition expansion. To convert an existing system to Basic Edition mode, use the default configuration options.

Important:
  • Using this command will default the configuration. Therefore ensure that you have a backup copy of the configuration before using this command in case it is necessary to return to the previous mode.

  • Do not use this command if the Default to Standard Mode option is enabled in the IP Office Manager preferences. Disable the option first.

Note that if the system includes components not supported by the mode to which it is switched, they will not work in the new mode. For example, ETR cards which are only supported in Basic Edition.

In order to use this command, the system security settings must be at their default settings. The current setting can be defaulted using the Erase Security Settings (Default) command.

After a mode change, the system restarts. If the system does not restart, the most likely cause is that the systems security settings were not at their default settings.
