Installation, SPM, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting Supplement
19. If phantom modules were programmed, re-program the phantom modules,
as needed using the information in the Extension Information reports
printed in Step 3.
20. Program the new extension ports to meet the customer’s needs.
21. Back up the system to a new filename to keep the first backup intact. Use a
filename that describes the post-016 MLX configuration-for example, “post-
016 MLX.”
Replacing a 008 OPT Module with a
016 MLX Module 8
WARNING:
If you are replacing more than one 008 OPT module, repeat Steps 1-19
for each module. Do not try to replace more than one 008 OPT module at
a time, because the system translations will be corrupted and you will
need to completely reprogram the entire system manually to restore the
customer’s configuration.
This procedure adds an additional four logical IDs to the system
configuration, starting after the first 12 ports of the new 016 MLX
module. (This occurs because you are adding four ports to the system
for each 016 MLX module.) The four top ports on the 016 MLX module
will acquire the extension numbers from the next extension module to
the right in the system. This slippage continues for the rest of the
extension modules in the system. You must do extensive renumbering
for the extensions that follow the new 016 MLX module. This
procedure removes any T/R functionality, any features that may have
been programmed, and any buttons (for example Inside Auto Dial) that
point to those extensions.
