BCM 4.0 for BCM1000 Installation and Maintenance Guide Addendum
Chapter 2
Documentation updates for BCM 4.0
This section provides updates to the BCM1000 Installation and Maintenance Guide
(N0008587 01).
General changes
The following changes apply throughout the document, even if not specifically identified:
• Replace references to Unified Manager with Element Manager. Any related procedures are
documented, since Element Manager functions differently than Unified Manager.
•The Programming Operations Guide for BCM 3.7 does not exist in BCM 4.0. The content can
be found in the BCM 4.0 Administration Guide and the BCM 4.0 Networking Configuration
Guide.
You can also refer to the online Help within Element Manager for information on using
Element Manager to configure and maintain your system.
• The Quick Start wizard (available in BCM 3.7) is not supported in BCM 4.0. The initial
configuration of the system is done using Element Manager.
Page 3, Preface
This chapter should be replaced with the chapter, “Getting started” on page 21.
Page 22, Data networking components
The sentence, “Modem card (North American systems only) — a V.90 modem that sends and
receives data using the public telephone system,”
should be, “Modem card (North American systems only) — a (V.90 or V.92) modem that sends
and receives data using the public telephone system.”
Page 23, MSC IP call processing hardware
The first bullet should be replaced with the following information.
• DS30 buses are internal communication paths controlled by the MSC. Each DS30 bus
provides a possible 32 signaling channels (B1 and B2) and 32 media channels. In BCM 3.0
software, the B2 channels were reconfigured as B1 channels for station modules. As a result,
DS30 02 to 07 were configured to support 32 telephones on each bus configured with
DSM16+, DSM32+ modules set to double density. The ASM 8 module could also be
supported on all four offsets as of that software release.
