has anyone contacted AVAYA about the partner ACS r7 defaulting back too 01-01 when power is removed for more then 1/2 hr. or more??? Replacing the AAA batteries with new ones doesn't help.I have checked this out with 3 other units,and they are all the same.Does anyone have an in at AVAYA? I lost mind when I retired.

I just installed an R7 today and it loses its programming if shut off for more than 30 seconds. It is easily restored from the NVRAM but the older processor (an R3) held it's programming.

so it sounds like you are having the same problem?did you get the equip. from avaya or a dealer? the problem with this,is if the cust.loses power at any time they're going too be calling.And don't think a UPS is a fix...

For now it can be fixed with a system restore. But I see much trouble. Fortunately the one customer has a UPS. This was purchased from an authorized Avaya distributor.

That's what you get for using the R7. Bugs on top of bugs. :bang:

Well, yeah, I'm an Avaya Business Partner and that's why I always sell R6's. :thumb:

OK, contacted the distributor. They said it was a problem since the R7V1 but now with the R7V2 it is even worse. Apparently the ACS will dump its programming even if it experiences a minor power fluctuation.
Avaya has promised a firmware upgrade. At some point.
This has the potential to be a big problem until Avaya gets their act together. Hard to sell these based on reliability when Avaya ships them with known problems.
