Hi there,

Is it okay to install a COB on an FX-II expansion cabinet? Is there anyone who has this kind of set-up?...Anything that I need to be aware of?

Thanks.

I forgot to mention that I will be replacing a failing Interchange Vmail. Should I install the COB by simply following the first-time set-up or kindly advise if there's anything I need to be aware of.

Thanks again.

Several questions I have while reviewing the COB install manual...

1. is there a way that I can move, transfer or copy the existing voicemail configuration (e.g. mailboxes, routing boxes etc..) of the Interchange to the COB?
2. is it possible to copy the existing greetings (mailbox & routing boxes) from the interchange to the COB?

Thanks again.

Thanks Jim, means that I will have configure the cob from scratch. Anyways, how about my first query as to installing a COB on an expansion cabinet?...Install manual doesn't mention anything that it has to be on the main chassis right?

Anyone who have installed a COB on an Expansion cabinet?

Thanks again.

I have always done in main cabinet but I do not know if that is a requirement. To be safe I would make room in main cabinet.

I would do that Jim, as it is simple to move an IST to the expansion cabinet than to gamble having the COB on the expansion cabinet - we wouldn't know if there's any implication. I'll play safe...

Thanks again.

Wouldn't move an IST to an expansion cabinet...had several sites with issues from having ISTs in second cabinet of a two cabinet install.

So you would only put digital station cards in the expansion cabs?

hi rbf/jim, the module that I'm planning to move to the expansion cabinet is an FXISTM-CO8/COS8 and they have around 2 analog phones and 3 polycom conference phones on it.

We have another client with an FXIST-08 on the second cabinet w/o any concerns...do you think the FXISTM-CO8 would just be fine?

I will be replacing an interchange with the COB today.
Is there anything else that I need to watch-out for?

Thanks.
sonny
