A power failure has occurred.
When a power failure occurs...
All functions of the PBX and Panasonic PTs stop. The following outside (CO) lines will be connected to the assigned SLTs:
Outside (CO) line 1: extension jack 01
Outside (CO) line 4: extension jack 09
Outside (CO) line 7: extension jack 17
This allows outside (CO) line conversations between the specified SLTs and outside destinations.
When the power is turned back on...
Your PBX restarts with the stored data automatically. Memory is protected by a factory-provided lithium battery. There is no memory loss except for the data associated with Automatic Callback Busy, Redial, and Call Park.
