Posted By: skip555 Electra Elite problem adding SLI 8 ETU - 03/06/12 06:22 PM
I installed a "refurbed " SLI 8 ETU today in a Electra elite

I set the slot card type as a SLI , all I get on all 8 ports is talk battery no ICM dial tone

I don't think there is any other programming involved

I'm thinking its a bad card

am I missing anything ?

Did you poke it in the eye? Reset?

I did a power up and down reset, I was just looking at the manual should I do the "Second Initialization"?

I saw that in the flow chart but I misread the manual while on site I thought it said I wold lose all data , rereading it looks like the data stays intact

A reset is all it should take. I would guess a bad card.

Skipp,
Are you adding the card or replacing one?
If you are adding, what is your port count?
Are there extension numbers assign to the ports?
I might be wrong but something tells me if the analog port has no extension number assigned you won't get dial tone.

Yes, must assign extension numbers in 4-10.

Pretty sure you will NOT get dialtone on the new ports until you do 4-10

Also, you didn't specify B2-48 or 192, IPK, IPKII.

The B2-48 supports a max of 48 ports, of which 32 max can be phones and 16 max can be CO lines. this can be doubled with a second cabinet.

back on site today , I looked at 4-10 and the ports all showed extension numbers (I'm in slot 5 and ports 9-16 all had extn numbers assigned)
when I call the extensions I get a busy but no DT at the block so I'm assuming bad card ?
Posted By: Rickman Re: Electra Elite problem adding SLI 8 ETU - 03/13/12 02:07 PM
Ports 9-16? Slot 5?
what other cards do you have in S1-S4? are you sure your on the right tail coming out of the KSU?
Posted By: skip555 Re: Electra Elite problem adding SLI 8 ETU - 03/13/12 03:10 PM
slot one is fixed , two has no amp connection , I'm not sure whats in 3 and four but they are populated 5 was the first available slot and according to my read of the manual it comes off on Amp two ,the first 8 pairs

the way I read it slot 1 is telephhone 1-8, 5 is telephone ports 9-16


I do have talk battery on those pairs just no DT

* Series 8000 or higher
ô€€€ PFT circuits are only connected to AMP3.
ô€€€ AMP1 is connected to S1, S2, and S3.
ô€€€ AMP2 is connected to S4, S5, and S6.
ô€€€ AMP3 is connected to S7 and S8.
If Your working on a Elite 192, it should start on Red/Brown Pair.
If S1 is the only Slot with an ESI then your ports would be 9-16.
Sounds like an Elite 48, what color is the KSU?
Posted By: skip555 Re: Electra Elite problem adding SLI 8 ETU - 03/14/12 08:01 AM
you're correct is is a 48 not a 192 I meant to make that correction when I posted yesterday
Posted By: doghart Re: Electra Elite problem adding SLI 8 ETU - 03/14/12 06:37 PM
In a 48 slot 2 is reserved for MIF card. I would assume you have 2 COI 4 cards since there are 2 cards in slots 3 + 4.

You typically would assign your card in 7-1, then assign station numbers in 4-10. That should be all there is to an analog port.

You could check 7-2 to make sure it shows TEL.

Sounds like you may have a bad card OR bad card slot.

Try deleting the card and moving it, if no go then try another card. If you need one, let me know via PM.

SL cards are a rare find lately for some reason.

OH.... is it an SLI B/E combo card??? they are only supported in the 48/192 with 9700 series software.
