SX-2000® TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN

This Technical Service Bulletin is intended for Customer Service and Installation personnel involved in the installation & maintenance of the Mitel SX-2000 Light PABX.

1. OVERVIEW

This is a quick reference document to provide a summary of power-up and option enabling instructions for new installations of the Mitel SX-2000 Light PABX. This is in supplement to the SX-2000 Technical Documentation on the CD shipped with new systems (P/N 9125-030-100-NA Issue 1 - February 2000).
