Search 
Search helps you locate all intercom keys that are assigned to talk or listen to a particular intercom port, party line, 
etc.  
Search is useful when you move a user from one intercom port to another. You will have to search for all keypanels 
that have keys assigned to that person’s old port, and change them to the new port.  
Search is available in the Edit menu and via the Search button. 
Send Changes 
Send Changes can only be selected in ONLINE mode. When you make changes, the changed items are highlighted 
in yellow. When you select Send Changes, these items will be sent to the intercom system. 
Send Changes is available in the Online menu and also via the Send Changes button. ONLINE mode is indicated by 
the word “ONLINE” in the lower-right corner of the screen. If SERVER or FILE is indicated, Send Changes will not be 
available.  
Send File 
Send File lets you select a file from disk, view its contents, and then send it to the intercom system. If the file is a 
complete setup file, all configuration information in the intercom system will be overwritten. If the file was created 
using the Partial Save command, only those items contained in the file will be overwritten in the intercom system. 
Send File is only available in ONLINE mode. You can access Send File in the Online menu, or with the Send File 
button. 
Server Mode 
When SERVER Mode is on, you can view the online configuration and also observe intercom activity, but you cannot 
make changes or manually load or send files. However, the intercom system can request files from the computer via 
UPL statements. 
SERVER mode must be activated if you want to use UPL statements to download files. You can only select Server 
Mode when the computer is connected to the intercom system and communicating with it. (ONLINE must first appear 
in the lower-right corner of the screen. Then, when you select Server Mode, ONLINE will change to SERVER.)  
Click Server Mode from the Online menu to turn it ON.  
Click again to turn it OFF.
