Before You Begin
This section describes preparations that should be completed before you start
programming.If you are already familiar with DBS 576 FF-key
programming, you can begin programming as soon as these preparations have
been made.
However, if you are not familiar with FF-key programming, read
Understanding FF-Key Programming on page Intro-14 before you begin.
Preparations for Programming
Before programming the phone system, make sure the following steps have
been completed:
1. Confirm that the purchased phone system meets the customer’s feature
requirements. See Section 700-Feature Operation for feature descriptions.
2. Confirm that all hardware required for the selected features has been obtained.
See Section 300-Installation for details.
3. Use Section 450-Configuration Forms & Tables to record the customer’s site
data. Use the following guidelines when completing Configuration Forms &
Tables:
•Be sure to record all program entries.
•Leave the default values for equipment that is not connected.
•Pay careful attention to program items that require a power-down to take
effect. Be sure to complete the necessary programming in these areas before
you make the system operational.
4. To program a system for the first time, you must first initialize the software to
default values (see Initializing a New Phone System,next page).
Once these steps are completed, use the customer’s site data recorded in
Forms & Tables, as well as this Section 400-Programming, to program the
phone system.

Initializing a New Phone System
CPC Reset (“RAMCLEAR”)
After installing a phone system for the first time, the CPC (Central Processing Card)
should be reset to default values before programming the system.
The switches, buttons and LEDs in the following
steps are located on the CPC card.
1. Set the CODE rotary switch to 2.
2. Set the RAM HOLD switch to OFF.
3. Press and hold in the MODE button, then
press the RESET button or power-on the
system.
•Wait for the MJ (Major) and MN (Minor)
LEDs to come on before releasing the
MODE button.
4. Move the RAM HOLD switch to ON.
•Wait for the system to power itself off,
then back on.
•All display phones should now show
“Welcome to DBS” on the top line.
5. At any installed display phone, press ON/
OFF. This will bring up Programming Mode,
and display the software version number.
6. Perform Initial Settings for the system,
either manually via Programming Mode
(see next page) or by choosing a set of
preprogrammed initial settings (see pg.
Intro-7).
IMPORTANT: This procedure must be performed before you program
the system; otherwise, the system will not work.

Ringing: On Extensions 100 and 101, COs#1 thru #32 will ring the extension for incoming calls.
EXT Assignments: Can be either AEC or DEC cards. The system will automatically detect these cards when they
are installed.
Built-In VM (in Pattern 2): VPU Ports 1-4 are assigned Extension Nos. 600-603, and included in Hunt Group #1.
Hunting method is Pilot Distributed. However, the Hunt Group’s pilot number is not assigned.
Built-In VM (in Pattern 5): VPU Ports 1-8 are assigned Extension Nos. 600-607, and included in Hunt Group #1.
Hunting method is Pilot Distributed. However, the Hunt Group’s pilot number is not assigned.
Patterns 1-3: (all countries except USA) Intended for CAB-40.
USA only: If Pattern 2 is used, be sure to change the FS-5 card assignment (VSSC Card always goes in FS-11).

System CPC Modes
The DBS 576 offers several system CPC modes,
which are automatically entered upon system
startup (depending on current configuration’s
needs). These CPC modes provide a way to
perform functions such as the following:
•normal system operation
•clearing of data at startup
•automatic or manual reading of system size
•diagnosing memory
•diagnosing LSI
Codes 0-3: Switch Operation Mode
The Switch Operation Mode executes normal
system switching operation on the basis of
stored (programmed) data.
To enter Switch Operation Mode:
1. Make sure the RAM HOLD switch is ON.
2. Set the CODE rotary switch to either 0, 1, 2,
or 3.
3. Press RESET or power-on the system.
4. As the system starts up, the MJ (Major) then
the MN (Minor) LEDs light. When the startup sequence is complete and the CPC
card is in normal operation mode, the RUN LEDs blink.
Code 4: System Diagnostic Mode 1 - Memory
CAUTION: This procedure interrupts call processing. Make certain to perform this test when it has
the least impact on the system.
This procedure analyzes the memory on the CPC card.
1. Set the CODE rotary switch to 4 and the RAM HOLD switch to OFF.
2. Press and hold RESET.
3. When the MJ LED lights, release RESET and change the CODE rotary switch as
follows:
•2 (D-RAM status information test)

•3 (S-RAM programming information test)
•5 (dual-port RAM test)
4. Press and release the MODE button.
•MN LED blinks during testing.
5. When the MN LED goes off, the test is passed. If the LED does not extinguish,
the memory does not pass the test.
6. After the test is passed, restart the system in the desired mode.
Code 5: System Diagnostic Mode 2 - LSI
CAUTION: This procedure interrupts call processing. Make certain to perform this test when it has
the least impact on the system.
This procedure analyzes the LSI on the CPC card.
1. Set the CODE rotary switch to 5 and the RAM HOLD switch to OFF.
2. Press and hold RESET.
3. When MJ LED lights, release RESET and change the rotary switch as follows:
•2 (D-RAM status information test)
•3 (S-RAM programming information test)
•5 (dual-port RAM test)
4. Press and release the MODE button.
•MN LED blinks during testing.
5. When the MN LED goes off, the test is passed. If the LED does not extinguish,
the memory does not pass the test.
6. After the test is passed, restart the system in the desired mode.
Code 6: CPC Copy
CAUTION: This procedure interrupts call processing. Make certain to perform this procedure when it
has the least impact on the system.
This procedure copies the contents of a programmed CPC card (“original CPC”) to
another CPC card (“new CPC”).
NOTE: Before performing CPC Copy, be sure to first RAMCLEAR the new CPC.
Follow the instructions on pg. Intro-5.
NOTE: The new CPC cannot have a lower capacity than the original CPC. For instance, a
CPC-288 cannot be copied to a CPC-96 (only to another CPC-288 or to a CPC-576).
