I must be missing something basic.
See in the manual that one must press flash-xx to get to database admin mode, etc.
I have two phones STS 3517-71 connected. At system power up, it shows a version number, OK, and Sync. No intercom dial tone; all the buttons do nothing.
I have one plain CO line connected.
IF I hold a button on either phone, and power system up, it shows me what button and says release; once I do, back to the start display screen, no dial tone, no further response.
Switch 8 is OFF, others on. The single switch next to the 8 is on. The jumper is on 12/13 since there is no T1 card.
This box has two - 8 position digital cards, and an additional CO card.
Feels like I am missing something really basic and fundamental here. This was a working system but has been out of use for over a year. I have 8 phones and would like to make use of it!

Suspicion: on the station champ, I'm on pair one, which should be station 100, which should always be able to program the data base, or so the manual says. I suspect maybe (?) with my combination of cards it's really not station 100??
