Upgrading your system

Adding Companion to a mini, midi, maxi, or mega system

On a mini system (non-expanded), only module 1 (ports 101 to 132) can be used for Companion Base Stations and/or wireline sets. Module 2 is used for trunk modules only.

On a midi system (2- port expansion) ensure that Station Modules 3, or 4, or both are available to connect Norstar sets or Base Stations. Base Stations cannot be connected to any other module.

On a maxi system (6-port expansion), ensure that the Station Modules 7, or 8, or both are available to connect Norstar sets or Base Stations. Base Stations cannot be connected to any other module.

On a mega (XC) system (12-port expansion), Station Modules 13 and 14 are reserved for Base Stations only.

Upgrading an RPI-8 to an RPI-16

Only distributors and authorized service personnel are permitted to upgrade an RPI-8.

Do not power up the RPI until the installation is complete. This includes the installation of Base Station cross-connectors.

If you are adding extra lines for Base Stations, always power down the RPI before you begin.
