what do you see if you stat that loop in ld32 & 60. also print cequ in ld22 to see if the loop is already assigned to something else

in ld32 that is assigned to a digital line card.
i need to know how to delete that

i know the procedure to setup a T1, but what i need is how to delete the DLC in slot5

thanks in advance

ok, so you've stated the card & you see a dgtl without any tns programmed, right? if there are any tns still programmed, out those 1st, then

REQ = OUT
TYPE = CARDMLT
TN xxxxxx

I'd assume this is a 51/61/81 as when you unplug a card in an 11/mini that has no tns prograammed the slot will stat unequipped

All you have to do is program the slot as an analog trunk. NO card is required in the slot to do this. Just program it as a COT or DID or TIE Etc for a trunk route that is already programed in the switch. After you prgram it, just out it and it will no longer think there is a card in the slot. I have done this many times. Go to LD 32 and stat the card and it will say UNEQUIP. After that go to LD 17 and add the DLOP under CEQU and continute to do the programing as you would normally. This will work on any Meridian Option switch.

All you are doing is tricking the switch and it really works. Just make sure the TNs for that slot are not programed for any type of phone. ie digital or analog.

I am just checking you are on an Opt 11. 61s and 81s can't have a T1 in an IPE shelf.

thanks wdhb for the answer ...i'll try this out
it is happening on 11c

actually the out - cardmlt would only need to be used on a 51/61/81. on an opt11 as long as nothing is programmed on the loop, when you physically remove the card it will diappear, ie when you stat the loop it show as unequipped
