You have migrated a 
peripheral or DSU cabinet 
from an SX-2000 system to a 
3300 ICP system and the 
Cabinet does not boot up.
 Incompatible FIM modules. Before you migrate a PER/DSU to a 3300 
ICP, ensure that you identify the types of 
FIM modules required before migrating:
• single to single
• multi-mode (820 nm) to multi-mode 
(820 nm), or
• multi-mode (1300 nm) to multi-mode 
(1300 nm).
The part numbers for the supported FIM 
modules are listed in the “Install and 
Replace Units” chapter of the MCD 
Technician’s Handbook.
LS/GS Trunks. Ensure that the programming matches the 
CO trunk equipment configuration (if the 
CO equipment is loop start, ensure that the 
trunk circuit is programmed as loop start) 
and that the system option “Interconnect 
Checking for Conference Calls” is enabled 
in the System Options form to prevent 
“hung-up” trunks.
Check Tip and Ring polarity.
Check Tip and Ring voltages.
Insufficient DTMF receivers (not 
enough for peak traffic load).
Add DTMF resources.
Fault in peripheral switch control. Swap the following cards with known 
working cards:
• Peripheral switch controller card (slot 16 
of a peripheral cabinet)
• Peripheral Resource card
• Control Resource card (SX-2000 
MicroLIGHT systems only)
Faulty LS/GS Trunk Card, 
E&M Trunk Card, or 
DID/Loop-Tie Trunk Card.
Faulty external trunk equipment or 
main distribution frame 
connections
Fix external trunk equipment and check 
main distribution frame connections.
Faulty main distribution frame and 
system connections.
Check main distribution frame and system 
connections.
Faulty programming. Check programming. See the System 
Administration Tool online help for details.
