Nortel Networks BCM1000 manual Global Analog Trunk Module Gatm, GATM4/GATM8 module faceplate

Table 4 DTM LED functions (Continued)
LED label	Function
Transmit Alarm	On indicates the DTM cannot transmit. The DTM sends an Alarm indication signal
	(AIS) to the terminating switch. This half-duplex link does not work.
Transmit Error	On indicates the DTM is sending a remote alarm indication (RAI) carrier failure
	alarm (CFA) to the terminating switch. If the Transmit Alarm is not on, this error
	indicates a far-end or cable problem.
All LEDS flashing	All LEDs flashing continuously indicates that the DTM is initializing.

TIP: You can install a maximum of three DTMs in the BCM1000 system, depending on the available bus blocks.

These modules must be installed in the BCM1000. If you already have three modules installed in the BCM1000, move one of those modules to the expansion unit to provide space for the DTM

Global Analog Trunk Module (GATM)

The GATM was introduced with the BCM 3.0 software load. This module provides an interface to the telephone company analog lines for the Business Communication Manager. The module supports both pulse and tone dialing, Caller ID, and Supervision Disconnect in various markets.

In North America, this module supersedes the Caller ID Trunk module (CTM).

UK profile configuration note: The GATM does not support Earth Calling even though the option appears in the Unified Manager Lines record. Only a FEM connected to a Norstar analog trunk module supports this feature.

The figure below shows the front of the GATM module. Note that both the GATM4 and the GATM8 have only one amphenol connector. The firmware differentiates how many lines the connector supports.
