Replacing a 008 OPT Module with a 016 MLX
Module
WARNING:
If you are replacing more than one 008 OPT module, repeat Steps 1-19 for each module. Do
not try to replace more than one 008 OPT module at a time, because the system translations
will be corrupted and you will need to completely reprogram the entire system manually to
restore the customer's configuration.
This procedure adds an additional four logical IDs to the system configuration, starting
after the first 12 ports of the new 016 MLX module. (This occurs because you are adding
four ports to the system for each 016 MLX module.) The four top ports on the 016 MLX
module will acquire the extension numbers from the next extension module to the right in
the system. This slippage continues for the rest of the extension modules in the system.
You must do extensive renumbering for the extensions that follow the new 016 MLX
module. This procedure removes any T/R functionality, any features that may have been
programmed, and any buttons (for example Inside Auto Dial) that point to those
extensions.
Follow these steps to replace a 008 OPT module with a 016 MLX module:
1. Back up the system programming to the customer backup card. Use a filename that describes
the pre-016 MLX configuration-for example, "pre-016 MLX."
2. Print a System Setup report. Determine whether the last slot/slots are programmed with
phantom modules. If there are phantom modules, the programming for these modules will be
removed when the new 016 MLX module is implemented.
3. If no phantom modules are programmed, go to Step 4. If there are phantom modules, print all
Extension Information reports for the extensions and MFMs connected to the phantom
modules. The extensions must be re-programmed after the new 016 MLX module is
implemented.
4. Print an Extension Directory report. (This report also includes phantom extension numbers.)
5. Print a Group Calling Information report.
6. Print a Group Coverage Information report.
7. Print Extension Information reports for all ports on the 008 OPT module that is being replaced.
8. Identify all Inside Auto Dial, Manual Signal, or Extension Pickup buttons programmed on other
telephones that point to the extensions on the 012 (T/R) module to be replaced. The
programming for these buttons will be removed after the Board Renumber procedure. These
buttons are not shown on the Extension Information report, so you must identify these buttons
with the customer.
9. Power down the system and replace the 008 OPT module with the 016 MLX module.
10. Power up the system.
11. Perform a Board Renumber procedure: Sys Program (1)
