Section 2: DN records
Warning: ECAP programming issue on cold start reboot
If you do a Backup/Cold Start/Restore sequence on your BCM50, button programming on
an enhanced CAP (eCAP) module is lost and the lines assigned to those buttons are
assigned to the buttons on the telephone. They replace any programming on the telephone
buttons, except answer DNs, intercom buttons, handsfree buttons, or Hunt group
appearances. As well, even if there are no more buttons to assign lines to, the system still
has the lines assigned to the telephone and it will ring when a call comes in on that line (if
appear&ring is configured on the line).
To correct the issue, go into the DN records for the telephone and the CAP/KIM button
programming, and reenter the correct programming.
• By using FEATURE *81 at the telephone, lines can be moved to other buttons on the
telephone, except intercom, answer DN, or handsfree positions, or they can be moved to
buttons on the modules on an eCAP. On telephones, the feature or line assigned to the button
where the line is moved, moves to the original line button position. On eCAP modules, moved
lines overwrite feature programming.
