Configuring a Single-Port/Dual-Port T1/E1/PRI Module (T1M/T1M-2)
Depending on the selection, one of the following options can be configured for the T1M module
(or up to two of the options for the T1M-2 module):
• T1
• T1/PRI
• E1/PRI
Auto-Equipping/Upgrading from the Single-Port T1/E1/PRI Module
If the T1M-2 module is installed in an uninstalled expansion bay prior to starting a remote mode
session of DB Programming, the module will auto-equip and be displayed in the appropriate bay
of the Communication Server when the DB Programming session is established.
If a T1M was previously programmed in the bay for the new T1M-2 module, you may change
the module from the T1/E1/PRI module to the new Dual T1/E1/PRI module in DB Programming.
The programming for the T1M port will be automatically copied to the first port of the T1M-2.
Conversely, if a T1M-2 with two configured/programmed ports is changed to a T1M, the
programming for the first port of the T1M-2 will be preserved and configured for the T1M port,
while the programming for the second port of the T1M-2 will be deleted.
DB Programming also permits drag/drop of T1M or T1M-2 ports from one T1M/T1M-2 module to
any “None” port of a T1M/T1M-2. To preserve programming when transitioning from one module
type to another, the ability to “move” a port from one T1M/T1M-2 to another was added.
IMPORTANT
DB Programming will display an error message under the following
circumstances:
• Change the port type of one port if the other port is programmed (not
None).
• Change the Framing Type under a T1 port and the other port is
programmed (not None). This field also exists under the T1/PRI port
type, but it is OLM only.
DB Programming displays: WARNING: Changes to this field are only
recommended on an idle system as this may cause a short pause in audio
on the other port of this module (but no dropped calls). Would you like to
continue?
NOTE
The move option is available only in a local mode session of DB Programming.
Only T1, T1/PRI or E1/PRI ports may be moved. The None port may not be
moved. Only None ports are valid destinations for a move.
