A message similar to the following will appear, showing the equipment card slots, service status,
and Controller software version.

DS1 Card 2 Installed 1
DS1 Card 3 Installed 1
DS1 Card 4 Installed 1
DS1 Card 5 Installed 1

NOTE: In an unprotected system with only one Controller card, the Controller will have
“Active” status and the other Controller card slot status will show “Card not installed”.
2. If new Controller card version is compatible with installed active Controller card, skip remaining
steps.
3. If new Controller card version is NOT compatible with installed active Controller card, continue
this procedure only if prepared for a service interruption and loss of provisioning. Verify
provisioning both before and after performing this procedure. Make provisioning changes as
required to re-establish service.
