It's been awhile since I worked on one of these and this one was given to me by a company that was going out of business. When you power it up the fan comes on, the red led lights on the backplain, and the red and green leds light and go out on the two port cards. I plugged extensions 14,15,16, and 17 into the port cards and dialed those extension numbers from a system phone and no answer. If the port cards are bad that's not a problem but I don't want to buy one and find out something else is wrong. There is not alot of demand for these things in my area and I don't want to have parts laying around that I can't get rid of. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The Message VMS's use the top ports not the bottum like a VS.

My bad, I just saw that it is a Partner Messaging R3 and not the new Messaging units. Have you put the VMS ports in hunt group 7?

I put the extension numbers that are plugged into the port cards in hunt group 7. I think the green leds are supposed to be lit on the port card and they aren't. Also I have three two port cards and the dip switch settings are different on all three.
The switches will be different according to what card they are, and yes you should have green lights.

Hi 1A2guru,
Do you hear the hard drive spin up? The two most common problems with these are the hard drive (usually heads stuck to platter) or the power supply. If you don't hear the drive spin up, take the cover off & give the drive a whack. If it spins up when you power up, you know what the fault is.
