Step 8 Switch power ON, and wait till system comes up as simplex active.
1) Take meter printouts and verify that there is no abnormality with
respect to pre -retrofit readings .
2) Make outgoing and I/C calls to and from connected exchanges to
verify proper functioning of the exchange.
Step 9 Login as super user, insert passive RAP, and reset it. Recovery will start
now and system will come to duplex active.
Step 10 Check all cards for healthy status. Give command for copy changeover &
verify proper working in other copy also.
Note : A field exchange may be in one of the following states :
1) Duplex active
2) Simplex, with duplicate copy cards present and healthy but out of service
i.e. not jacked in (this may be due to faulty/missing PROMs in one of the
cards).
3) Simplex with duplicate copy cards missing or faulty.
For state 1 and 2, follow all the above steps to bring system to Duplex active.
For state 3, follow steps 1 to 9 so that all available cards are updated with
latest s/w version and can be used later when repaired cards arrive to bring
system to Duplex.

2.5. FEATURE DETAILS, HARDWARE CHANGES AND NEW COMMANDS
2.5.1. Provision of Selecting External Clock for Network Synchronization
2.5.1.1. Feature Details
To support Internet connectivity at high speeds there is a need to synchronize
RAX to the network. For this purpose new hardware has been introduced in
256P-RAX. This new hardware is RNS card (RAX NETWORK
SYNCHRONISATION CARD APC-RNS892/T-S00). RNS card can extract
clock from the reference PCM link (E1 link) coming from network,
synchronize with it, and give synchronized output to RAP card. In case PCM
Link is down, it will then supply its own freerun clock, which is better than
RAX Clock.
2.5.1.2. Hardware Requirements
1. Additional components should be mounted on RAP card as per ECN14112
A list of these components is given in the table below :

2.5.3. Support for charging on INMARSAT calls
2.5.3.1. Feature Details
INMARSAT calls i.e. 00871, 00872 etc. can be charged as per applicable pulse
rates of 150ms or 260 ms with some limitations. Minimum charging possible
for these type of calls is in unit of 100ms or multiple thereof. These pulses
can not be transmitted over the trunks to the preceding exchange, hence
charging can be done for RAX subscribers only.
For 150 ms pulse rate, charging will be done at the rate of 2 pulses at every
300ms. For 260 ms pulse charging will be done at the rate of 5 pulses at every
1300ms.
2.5.3.2. Steps to be followed for creation and charging of INMARSAT routes
1. Create all required INMARSAT Routes with PRIM TAX option as No.
2. Define charge pulses (i.e. number of pulses along with charge period in
hundred of milliseconds) for these routes. e.g. For 150 ms Pulse rate
the charge period is 03 and pulse is 2
3. CRI defined for these routes should not be D, E or F
4. Define all other route parameters for this route number alongwith
required Trunk Group where these calls are to be sent

2.5.6. Uniform access restrictions through admin commands and
Subscriber control activation
2.5.6.1. Feature Details
All subscriber access levels i.e. special services, local, regional STD, STD and
ISD can now be enabled in any required combination through MMI
commands. For this purpose Special Service is divided into two categories i.e.
Special Service Emergency only and Special Service All calls. If a subscriber
has Special Service Emergency only facility, then he can dial only Level 1
Emergency Service calls. If he has Special Service All calls, then he can dial
all level 1 calls. This change provides an admin equivalent for certain
combinations, which could be defined through dynamic OG restriction feature
from subscriber, but not through MMI commands in earlier release.
2.5.6.2. Modification in MMI Commands
There are changes in the MMI commands for programming `Special Service
allowed/barred for a subscriber. The new MMI command is as follows :

subscriber dials 1 as first digit.
2.5.7. Support for collect calls
2.5.7.1. Feature Details
Subscribers having outgoing access up to local only can now access Collect
Calls i.e. 000 calls

No new MMI is added for this feature
2.5.8. System threshold violation report for TAX routes based on charge
units for a call
2.5.8.1. Feature Details
It is possible to define a threshold for TAX calls. Whenever this threshold is
crossed during a TAX call an alarm in the form of threshold violation report
is generated on printer. If call is originated from the same RAX, the calling
subscriber number is printed but if RAX is acting as transit for TAX calls
then only I/C junction port number is printed to identify the exchange from
which call is originated. There is one threshold value for the whole system.

Procedure for Mounting of Components
on RAP Card for Network
Synchronisation
Please refer Fig-1 for a layout for mounting of these components. Since no
components were previously mounted at these positions the corresponding
Plated Through Hole (PTH) on the PCB will be filled with solder.
These PTH have to be first cleared using a desoldering pump and soldering
iron. Care should be taken not to damage the PTH and the associated tracks
on the PCB.
Cut the excess leads of the resistances to be mounted at R21, R35, R40 and
capacitance to be mounted at C63.
Now mount these components and solder them one by one. Care should be
taken to mount the IC U59 and resistance network RN2 with proper polarity.
Clean the PCB where these components are mounted with Isopropyl Alcohol.
