Add CMRCs, CMLCs, or CMBCs to the system if existing cards cannot
accommodate additional Base Stations or portable telephones. Expansion
cards can be added to a live system as long as existing cards and faceplate
cables are undisturbed. Alternatively, the entire system can be disabled during
installation.
New cards must be added to the right of an existing system. If there is no space
for additional cards to the right of the current system, try to move other
Meridian 1 cards to create sufficient space (after disabling the cards using the
Meridian 1 Administration Terminal). If it is impossible to create enough
space by moving cards, relocate the Meridian Companion cards as described
in "Relocating the system" on page 157.
Feature MC32 with Package 350 on an Option 11, Release 24 system
effectively doubles the WTN or portable capacity of the cards. If you want to
add more portable telephones, you can register an additional 16 on the existing
CMCC, CMLC and CMRC cards.
