DEFINITY AUDIX Power Procedures
If the AUDIX System is located in the DEFINITY cabinet, then follow these 
procedures.
Power Down the AUDIX System
A yellow caution sticker on the system’s power unit notifies technicians to shut 
down the DEFINITY AUDIX System prior to powering down the system.
1. Log into the AUDIX System as craft. 
2. Type the reset system shutdown and press 
En t e r.
3. Press 
En te r again to start the shutdown process.
4. The SHUTDOWN Completed message appears when the AUDIX is 
successfully shutdown. This takes about 2 minutes.
5. You can now shut down the carrier or remove the AUDIX System for 
service.
!CAUTION:
If leaving AUDIX System in the carrier, back it out about 2 in. (5 cm) to 
eliminate the possibility of damage due to power surges.
Power Up the AUDIX System
nIf the AUDIX was removed from the cabinet:
1. Re-install the AUDIX and allow it to boot up automatically.
2. Check for AUDIX System errors.
nIf the AUDIX remained in the cabinet but the cabinet was powered down:
1. Reseat the AUDIX
2. Power up the cabinet. The AUDIX reboots automatically.
3. Check for AUDIX System errors.
nIf the AUDIX remained in the cabinet and the cabinet was not powered 
down:
1. At the AUDIX console, hold the 
crtl key and type cc.
2. Type 5 at the prompt. In about 2 minutes, the AUDIX boots up.
3. When the system initialization is complete, log in as craft.
4. Check for AUDIX System errors.

Upgrading R5vs/R6vs to R8si
This chapter provides the information necessary to upgrade a G3vs with a TN790 
processor to a Release 8si. 
This upgrade requires replacing the existing cabinet with a new Single-Carrier 
Control Cabinet. The port circuit packs from the present system may be reused 
only if a site inspection determines that the port circuit pack vintages are usable in 
the Release 8si. 
Some of the interconnect cables from the existing system may be too short to 
reach from the Release 8si cabinet to the Main Distribution Frame (MDF). If so, 
the cables must be replaced as part of the upgrade process.
NOTE:
This chapter assumes that the current system contains an Intel® 386. If the 
system is not at this level, refer to 
DEFINITY Communications System 
Generic 3vs and Generic 3si Upgrades and Additions
. 
Then return to this chapter to upgrade to Release 8.
DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Administrator’s Guide 
lists DEFINITY ECS Release 8 features and functions and also provides the 
commands, procedures, and screens to initialize and administer the DEFINITY 
System.

Service Interruption
The upgrade process for a standard reliability system requires a service 
interruption. Coordinate the service interruption with the customer and the local 
account team.
Call Management System (CMS)
The CMS link is dropped and restarted during the upgrade. This causes CMS 
data to be lost. This data loss can be minimized if the upgrade is performed just 
after the last CMS measurement interval.
All measurement data is lost during the upgrade (including BCMS). If needed, the 
repor ts may be printed before the upgrade begins.
CMS could abort the processing of a call if a measured trunk that was par t of the 
conference dropped off the call before the end of the call. Customers experiencing 
this symptom and who are running R3V4 CMS should update to r3v4ao.e or 
higher.
Contact Network Technicians
Contact the technician for each public and private network before the upgrade 
begins. Otherwise, it is possible that network access trunk facilities will be busied 
out at the far end.
Usable Circuit Packs
Every circuit pack used in the Release 8 system must conform to the minimum 
usable vintage requirements for that system. At a presale site inspection, the 
remediation process checks the vintages of existing circuit packs to be reused in 
the Release 8 system. Replace all unusable vintage circuit packs with current 
vintages.
Refer to 
Te c h n i c a l  Q u a r t e r l y, Reference Guide for Circuit Pack Vintages, Change 
Notices, 
and to the Software Release Letter for information about usable circuit 
pack vintages. For information about usable vintages of non-U.S. circuit packs, 
refer to the ITAC Tech Alert from your regional distributor.
Software Upgrade 
Although the translations upgrade automatically to Release 8, several features 
require special attention because of screen changes or potential naming conflicts 
in the update or upgrade procedure.

Between customer confirmation and the actual update or upgrade, check the 
screens to ensure the translations meet the customer’s needs. After rebooting the 
system, enter the translations either locally or remotely. If done remotely, Contact 
Field Support Administration Center (FSAC) for the remote entry. For information 
to make the required changes, refer to:
nDEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Administrator’s 
Guide
No administration changes should be made during the upgrade procedure. There 
can be time gaps between steps and, since the system cannot prevent 
administration changes, it is up to the system technician to make sure that none 
are attempted during the entire upgrade process.
Translation Card Compatibility
An upgrade from a G3V4 requires a Release 8 formatted translation card. A new 
MIPS formatted translation card ships with each upgrade.
Required Tools
This upgrade may require the following tools and other items:
nWrist ground strap
nFlash maintenance kit (MTCE 00037) (from Material Stocking Location) 
nStatic-proof or original circuit pack packaging for transporting circuit packs
nOne copy of each of the following books:
— DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 
Maintenance for R8si
— DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 
Administrator’s Guide
DC Isolator
Each peripheral connected to a DC-powered system, by the asynchronous EIA 
RS-232 interface, requires a 116A or 105C isolator. The isolator is inserted at the 
RS-232 interface between the peripheral and the interface connector to isolate 
ground between the system and external adjuncts.
Antistatic Protection
!CAUTION:
When handling circuit packs or any components of a DEFINITY ECS 
system, always wear an antistatic wrist ground strap. Connect the strap to 
an approved ground such as ground jack on the DEFINITY ECS system.

Install Control Cabinet
1. Position the control cabinet at the desired location (as close to the Main 
Distribution Frame [MDF] as possible).
!CAUTION:
The cabinet may weigh as much as 130 pounds (58 kg). Use lifting 
precautions to avoid injury.
2. If earthquake protection is not required, install hole plugs (provided with 
cabinet) in the holes previously occupied by the 2 carriage bolts at the 
bottom rear of the cabinet.
Add Earthquake Protection
1. If earthquake protection is required, refer to Chapter 6, ‘‘Adding or 
Removing Hardware’’.
Label Existing Cables
1. To make reconnecting the cables simpler and more reliable, label every 
reusable connector cable in the system.
NOTE:
The cables connecting to the existing system are probably too short. 
Replace these cables with new, longer cables (if necessary).
2. Install new connector cables, as necessary, onto the connectors on the 
rear of the cabinet.
3. Route the cables to the MDF and cross-connect as necessary.
