Newly installed MSDL cards
Problems that occur during MSDL card installation usually result from
improperly installed, incorrectly addressed, or faulty cards.
If the LED on a newly installed MSDL does not flash three times after
insertion, wait 5 minutes, then remove and reinsert. If the LED still does not
flash three times, the card is faulty.
Previously operating MSDL cards
Problems that occur during normal operation usually result from faulty
cards. Follow these steps to evaluate the situation:

Action
Observe and list the problem symptoms; for example, a typical
symptom is a permanently lit LED.
If the LED flashes three times but the card does not enable, verify
that the card is installed in a proper slot.
Check that the address is unique; no other card in the system can
be physically set to the same device number as the MSDL.
If installation is correct and no address conflict exists, refer to

If the MSDL still does not operate correctly, contact your Nortel
representative.
Action
Use the STAT MSDL x command to check MSDL card status. See
