Re: (ASCEND) Pipeline 75, 2 channels, and ACO




This is most likely due to the PM3.  I had a the exact same thing happen to me when dialing a PM3.  I think there is some protocol that Ascend uses to communicate whether to being up the second channel.  This may sound stupid, but I believe ascend does this to check whether both sides will allow the maximum number of channels.  If you get a resolution to this, please notify me
