To shutdown the system hardware

Warning: Remove all of the connections to the BCM system before you power down the system.

Failure to disconnect lines before you power down the system can cause damage to the system.

1Remove the DS256 cables from the front of the BCM main unit and, if present, the expansion unit. This includes the data connections on the MSC.

Mark the cables to ensure correct reconnection.

Warning: You must disconnect power from the main unit after you have performed an Element Manager shutdown. The main unit cannot start operating again until after power has been disconnected and then reconnected.

2Turn off the power switch located at the back of the BCM main unit and expansion unit.

3Disconnect the BCM main unit and expansion unit power cords from the AC outlet.

4Ensure you have room to access the part you are working on. Remove the BCM main unit from the rack, if necessary.

Pages 126–131, Setting initial system configurations

This section should be removed. The initial system configuration will be done after the rest of the equipment is installed.

Pages 131, Entering the software keycodes

This section should be removed. The keycode feature is discussed in another section of the addendum.

Pages 144-146, Telephone port and DN cross-reference

The Note on page 144 should be modified as follows.

Note: The following table is based on a system with three-digit DNs, with a start DN of 221. If your system has longer DNs, the system automatically adds a repeat of the first digit for each additional DN length unit. i.e. 221 becomes 2221. Also, note on the tables below that DN numbering differs between systems that were upgraded from BCM 2.5 software and systems that were new with BCM 3.0 or newer software.
