with the position a module is installed by clicking on the tab for that Slot number. The
Card Type
is configured by clicking on the arrow and choosing the option.
Module Matrix Wizard
It is important during hardware set-up that the modules are installed in the slots of the base unit
per the Module Interface Matrix. The Module Matrix Wizard button on the Units screen (see
Figure 15) can also be used to select the valid module installation configurations. Clicking the
Module Matrix Wizard button displays valid module combinations, as shown in Figure 16A.

When doing a Query Card Types command, if the modules are not installed in the correct slots,
the TSP program will indicate this and refer you to the Module Matrix Wizard for the proper set-up
Important:
Before installing or removing a POTS module, connect a telephone set to any port of any POTS
module, power down the unit, and then go off-hook on the telephone set. This allows for voltage
dissipation from the base unit and prevents damage to the unit. An alternative procedure is to
power down the TSP for at least 30 minutes before installing or removing the module.
At this point it is recommended to click
OK
on the
Units
screen. You will need to obtain an
Authorization Code to enable the TSP to test.
Also, if you receive a message indicating “newer code is available” click
No
. You will need to
follow the instructions in the Software Updates section after obtaining the Authorization Code to
successfully download the newer code to the TSP.
Authorization Code
An Authorization Code is necessary to enable the TSP the first time it is used, and also to enable
any purchased software modules (such as TSP-PRI). This code, obtained from Teltone’s
Customer Service, needs to be loaded only once and is stored in the TSP permanently.
