TrunkMod

TrunkMod setting allows you to configure the Trunk
Cartridges in the Trunk Module.
Press CHANGE to select the setting: Loop, E&M, DID, BRI-ST,
BRI-U2, BRI-U4 or PRI.
Loop is the default setting used for Loop start and Call
Information (CI) Trunk Cartridges.
Tips -
disable the Trunk Cartridge using Module status in
Maintenance. Remember to enable the Trunk Cartridge once
you have completed programming. See Module status on page
537 for details.
The Trunk Cartridge slots in the Module are numbered from
left to right. Trunk Modules are numbered 3 to 4 for a midi,
3 to 8 for a maxi and a mega system.
Depending on your system configuration, off-core DTI, PRI,
BRI-ST, BRI-U2, and BRI-U4 cards can only reside in certain
trunk modules. In a midi system, the cards must be in trunk
modules 3 or 4. In a maxi or mega system, the cards must be
in trunk modules 7 or 8. The cards can reside in the ICS
regardless of system size.
Once you specify the type of Trunk Cartridge in the ICS slot,
press SHOW to display the line number range for the lines on the
Trunk Cartridge.
TIP -
to 6.0, note the line numbering changes, particularly for
profile 2, from your previous system. Line number changes
were introduced in version 6.0 software.
