Bcm50 GATM4 Module

[robweston4563]

Hi

I have a new BCM50, I needed to add to it, 4 lines, we were advised to buy a GATM4, which we did and have installed that and it is linked to the bcm. We have wired our 4 lines to this module, but, we have no lines.
When I look at telephony resources on the element manager it says:
Expansion 1 &2 are empty. Do I need a key-code for the Gatm4? I was led to believe I could just hook it up.

When I look at the lines in All Lines, I have a number of VOIP lines, 4 BRI-ST2 lines and a number of Target lines. I have read that the GATM4 module uses line 065 as default, but I cannot find it or add it. Everything else is working, I just need to get the lines on the system..... any ideas?

The System is BCM50B Version 6.0.2.05.237

Thanks

Rob

Yes you need an expansion key code.

The system has built in ports on the unit itself which all require key codes to activate:
4 Trunks
4 ATA's
12 Digital Stations

Adding another expansion cabinet to hold extra trunk or station modules etc requires the expansion key code as stated by cook1082 but the modules themselves do not.

You can look under licenses to see what you have activated.

I have managed to add the GATM4 module and it is showing up on the system.
My next problem is the wiring of lines.

This is what i have followed so far, but I do not have a blue or white cable. I have a blue cable with white, and a white cable with blue... but when I use these the line does not show up on the system. Can anyone advise?

Pair Pin Wires Colour Expansion Port 1
Default Line Numbers Expansion Port 2
Default Line Numbers
GATM4 & GATM8
1 26/1 White/Blue 65 95
2 27/2 White/Orange 66 96
3-4 No Connection
3 28/3 White/Green 67 97
4 29/4 White/Brown 68 98

What do you meant "it does not show up on the system"?

What is the actual issue?

Lines not assigned to telephone?
Lines assigned to set in programming but does not seem to be on the set?
Line shows but no dial tone?
