Software Increment Release Notes
================================
Increment ID:   I41A1800
Release:        AN1800
Date created:   8-1-2004
Increment Type: APU
Title: LC Over-current protection, EBS ringing volume.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Following is a list of issues addressed in this Increment. See below
for more details.
1. Line cards stuck in over-current protection state.
2. EBS ringing volume too loud.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Line cards stuck in over-current protection state.
* Description: Lightning voltage or other abnormal voltage surges 
can cause certain types of circuits to go into an over-current state. 
These circuits may not automatically recover from this state and need 
to be manually recovered. These pack types include all vintages of
the NT4K65 CDS Epsilon, NTN502 ANX Epsilon II, UE9000 NTNP40 POTS-24,
and NTNP42 UVG-24 line cards. This increment further enhances the 
changes that were delivered in I40A1800.
* Pre-Increment Impact and work-around: The circuit is unavailable
for call processing until it is manually reset at the craft level
of the AccessNode Human Machine Interface (HMI).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2. EBS ringing volume too loud.
* Description: When migrating service from a DMS-100 to an AccessNode
line, some end users have noted a change in the ringing volume on an
EBS set. The lowest ringing volume selectable by the telephone station
is 3dB higher than when the line is hosted directly by the DMS-100. 
This increment allows for an additional 3dB of loss for EBS customers,
but must be used in concert with a special linecard load, the "LR" 
(Loud Ring) load. Please contact Zhone Global Services Support if you 
believe you require this linecard load.
* Pre-Increment Impact and work-around: For a DMS-100, changes of this
type are handled by the use of Table PADDATA.
