Replacing Two 008 MLX Modules
with One 016 MLX Module When the
008 MLX Modules are the Last Two
Modules in the System
8
Follow these steps when you are replacing two 008 MLX modules at the end of
the system with one 016 MLX module:
1. Back up the system programming to the customer backup card. Use a
filename that describes the pre-016 MLX configuration-for example, “pre-
016 MLX.”
2. Print a System Setup report. Determine whether the last slot/slots are
programmed with phantom modules. If there are phantom modules, the
programming for these modules will be removed when the new 016 MLX
module is implemented.
3. If no phantom modules are programmed, go to Step 4. If there are phantom
modules, print all Extension Information reports for the extensions and
MFMs connected to the phantom modules. The extensions must be re-
programmed after the new 016 MLX module is implemented.
4. Print an Extension Directory report. (This report also includes phantom
extension numbers.)
5. Print a Group Calling Information report.
6. Print a Group Coverage Information report.
7. Print Extension Information reports for all ports (including MFMs) on the
two 008 MLX modules that are being replaced.
8. Identify all Inside Auto Dial, Manual Signal, or Extension Pickup buttons
programmed on other telephones that point to the extensions on the 008
MLX module to be replaced. The programming for these buttons will be
removed after the Board Renumber procedure. These buttons are not
shown on the Extension Information report, so you must identify these
buttons with the customer.
9. Power down the system, and replace the two 008 MLX modules with the
016 MLX module.
