Option Control Chip (OCC)
The OCC is located on the motherboard, directly behind the PSU.
. The Octel 300 OCC is on the Shelf A motherboard.
The OCC contains information about the message server configuration, the number of voice and fax
mailboxes authorized, and the Octel 200/300 feature options.
The OCC must always remain with the message server it was purchased for. If the motherboard must
be replaced, the OCC must be transferred from the old motherboard to the replacement motherboard.
Refer to the Hardware Replacement, Option Control Chip Replacement section, in this manual.
Floppy Disk Drive
The load/backup device is the floppy disk drive, which permits online backup of critical message
server configuration information as well as names and greetings. It offers a reliable means of copying
new software and prompts to the hard disk. The floppy disk drive is also used to restore a message
server to normal operation when replacing the hard disk.
The Octel 200 floppy disk drive is an integral part of the PSU.
The Octel 300 floppy disk drive is a separate unit connected by a cable to the front of the CPU.
