3rd T-1 Card in MICS XC 6.0 Software

[Norstarguru]

Nortel has no info on this one, No tech notes available

We have added the 3rd T-1 Card to module 8, there are no other cards in the 12X0, we have the new version T-1 Card, There are no settings for a clock source on the 3rd T-1 Card. We have a problem with the Channels working for a few calls, then it takes up to 4 minutes for a channel to disconnect and it works for about a day, then eventually the channels just lock themselves out, and we are not getting any alarms or error codes?
We swapped circuits with one that has been working since 1996, (They both have the same settings) and it does the same thing on the 3rd T-1 Card. ANY IDEAS

I maybe wrong here but I thought that you could only have 2 Isdn30 or in your instance in the States T-1 cards, not aware or heard of any company having 3 Pri or T-1 cards in there system, somthing to do with the Software/ CCU data only reading 2 cards, in England BT only offer 120 Channels of Pri no more unless you change system...2 cards at 30 channels per card,I'm also presuming that we are talking about a 0+32?..would the ccu be able to read the extra card due to it being linked via the fibre optic cable and expansion card..the 0x12 Line Module only handle's "global" line cards or line cards..( 2 line cards but 1 is "barriered" and the other is "unbarriered" )..also there is no "clock card" in the Line Module so there no synchronizeation between system and your local exchange equiptment..your telco company...hoped this has made some kind of sense..

gydog,

with the release of 6.0, 3 T1s are supported.

Norstarguru,

I haven't installed 3T1s yet so I can't help. Sorry.

Since it is the weekend and I don't have all of the manuals at home like some of you this one is from memory: wasen't the clock settings for the t-1 cards set in hardware? I think the settings were either master or slave. I do not remember seeing any physical settings for clocking on the DTI cards.
