setting up a new PRI

[PHXAZ]

Good day all, I just inherited a Merlin legend 6.0 release 10.
I have been assigned the task to install a new PRI, as I'm the local IPO and partner tech its assumed I know how to do it.
well after looking ove the manuals and several posts I think I have a pretty good idea all I need to do i just want a little help guiding me in case i missed a step. Here is what I have tell me if i'm right or i'm off.

1- Turn power off
2- insert card power system up.
3- on a mlx20- press menu- system program- system-board renum
4-make sure system is in hybrid mode

1. Set Frame Format to Extended Super Frame
Lines Trunks=>LS/GS/DS1=>enter slot + Enter =>Frame Format=>Extended Super Frame=>Enter.

2. Set Suppression
Lines Trunks=>LS/GS/DS1=>enter slot + Enter =>Suppression=>B8ZS=>Enter.

3. Change Type to PRI.
Lines Trunks=>LS/GS/DS1=>enter slot + Enter =>Type=>PRI=>Enter.

PRI MENU

4. Set Switch Type.
Lines Trunks=>PRI=>Switch Type=>make choice+Enter.

5-programm b channel group
6 -rogram lines
7- set network service
8- set incoming routing
9- program dialing plan
10-program outgoing table
11- set network service

the question that I have mainly is will this system support NI2 or is there a specific switch type and option that I need to input.

Thank you in advance.

Nope, NO NI2, only NI1.

5ESS is usually used, but we can match others as shown in your list of choices.

When we request 5ESS from the Provider, we also say we want CUSTOM.
