Base Cabinet, following the instructions under “CS port cards,” page F.2. If you’re installing an “E2” port card on an ESI-600 with a metal faceplate, you’ll need the “Hot Swap” Port Card Adapter with a metal faceplate (ESI part # 5000-0385).
1. The replacement port card must be identical to the port card being removed (i.e.: an E2-612 must be replaced with an E2-612; an ESI-DLC must be replaced with an ESI-DLC; etc.) — with the following exception: because each “E2” card is functionally identical to its corresponding “CS” version, you could (for example) remove an E2-684 and replace with a CS-684.
. (An ESI-1000 or ESI-600 Memory Module is always a hard drive.) Procedure for two hard-drive Memory Modules (ESI-1000) Note: The installation of these drives enables M3 operation on the ESI-1000; no other hardware is required, due to the ESI-1000’s built-in M3 interface. (See “Mirrored Memory Module (M3),” page F.9.) 1.

“freeze.” Though it is hard to predict exactly when different ESI systems will have problems with modified sine wave or square waveform UPSs (meaning during a power failure event or the recovery from one), it’s fair to assume that a problem will eventually arise from the use of such UPSs.
The ESI Communications Server continuously outputs real-time SMDR call records to the port. Note: The system will buffer up to a specific limit of SMDR records (60,000 on the ESI-1000, or 1,000 on other ESI Communications Servers) in non-volatile memory when the Maintenance/ SMDR serial port is in use for programming or uploading (such as during use of ESI System Programmer).
If an IVC is installed in slot 1 on the ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200, the audio connection and dry-contact control connect via the second port card. (On an ESI-200, a non-IVC card must be in slot 1 or 2. On an ESI-100, a non-IVC card must be in slot 1. On an ESI-50, an IVC is built-in and...
CO line connection Note: For greatest simplicity, this section mentions each port card without the use of an “ESI,” “E2-,“ or “CS-“ prefix, as cards otherwise are functionally identical — e.g., we refer to an E2-684 or CS-684 as just a “684.”...
Line compensation (or line build-out) is provided as necessary between the CSU or Smart Jack and the ESI Communications Server. There won’t be any support for pulse dialing; all incoming dialing will default to DTMF digits. When working with a PRI line, the DLC (i.e., the DLC, DLC12, or DLC82) supports these switch protocols: •...
All analog ports provide Type I Caller ID information (Caller ID with call waiting is not supported). The 482 card is supported also by the ESI-50L, the ESI C-Plus, and IVX S-Class (Generation I–II) systems. For information on installing ESI Presence Management, see its Installation Manual (ESI # 0450-0792).
