ESM BOARD
This board has no selectable options and installs in position LOC1 of the MCP card when the system
has more than one cabinet installed
(see Figure 3-2)
. The ESM board is required to expand the system
from 512 to 1024 time slots. To install the ESM board remove the two (2) screws holding the MCP
protective casing together
(see Figure 3-6)
and separate the two halves of the case. Place the ESM
board face down over the three connectors, taking care to properly line them up and press gently on
the back of the board to seat it. The MCP case can now be reassembled if all required daughter
boards have been installed.
