Software Increment Release Notes
================================

Increment ID:   I15A1730
Date created:   JUL 18, 2000
SR number:      10330998, 10333690, 10331003, 10331007, 10331004, 10335399

Title: LC 24-25 issues+1 Meg Modem loss of comm+ corrupted FT1 circuit after warm restart+loss of express line card after power cycle+Overvoltage protection mechanism improved + AB bits toggling in FT1 using SF 


Detailed Description of Increment:  
----------------------------------

Addresses the ExpressLine cards not working when provisioned with LSR service in
slot 24 of an ANX defined on the NE as ANX-1.Some Omega line cards will not function properly 
when inserted into slot 25 under the same conditions.

Allow data portion of the one Meg modem LC (NTN505) data to work properly under
loss of COMM conditions on the VM.

Fixes clear channel FT1 circuit to be changed to RBS after warm restart

Fixes the problem where WLC (NTN502) and one Meg modem linecards (NTN505)
are lost after a CLEAR-DB TL1 command. The problem was also reported
after a power cycle or a cold restart of the voice module.

Fixes the problem where the ExpressLine Card remains in over-voltage protection. 

Fixes the problem of AB bits toggling on a FT1 circuit programmed in SF (superframe),

System Configuration / Shelf Type Requirements:
-----------------------------------------------
ANX HDT


Increments Needed:
------------------
I01A1730 - I14A1730


Loads Affected:
---------------
SP, LAIC application firmware

After a successful application, the version of the loads will be as follows:
SP - ANXSPL17BT
LAIC Application - LAICL17BT
LAIC firmware - LAICBL17BT


Installation Instructions:
--------------------------
Download increment from the Web:
Either a) download the increment directly to the /iswd directory on the OPC.
       b) download the increment to tape and insert into the OPC tape drive.
Start up Incremental SW Del. from the Software Admin toolset on the OPC.

Deliver the increment:
  1) Select Deliver an Increment.

  2) Type y to verify your selection.

Verify the increment:
  1) From the ISD main menu, select Display Increments.

  2) Select Display to Screen.

  3) Verify the increment delivered have the correct Title
     and Description.  Also verify that their status is
     "READY TO APPLY".

     NOTE: If the increment is a Linecard only increment, the
     status will be "LOAD DELIVERED". 

  4) Press any key to return to the main menu.

Apply the increment:
  1) From the ISD main menu, select Apply an Increment.

  2) In the list, select the number next to the increment you delivered.

  3) Select on e of these options:
     1) Apply to ALL NEs (to set the increment fully into the system)
     2) Trial on one NE (to test the increment to ensure that it causes
        no problems)

     If you select option 2, a list of NEs in the span of control appears.
     From the list of NEs, select the number next to the one you want to
     test.  A confirmation screen appears.

  4) Type y to verify your selection.

  5) When the application is complete, press any key to scroll through
     the Summary screesn until you return to the main menu.
 
  6) From the main menu, select Display Increments.

  7) Select Display to Screen.

  8) Verify that the status next to each NE now reads "APPLIED"
     (or "TRIAL APPLIED" if you chose to run a test in step 3 above).

IF THE INCREMENT INVOLVES THE APU YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING STEP
Dump the image:
  1) From the ISD main menu, select Dump an APU Image.

  2) Select one of the valid load types that can be dumped.

  3) Select one of the valid NEs matching your previous parameters.

  4) Type y to verify your selection.

  5) When the image is complete, press any key to return to the main menu.
