The two affected PEC codes above have been manufactured with firmware version 1.0.

In order to be recognized by the BCM50 or BCM450 system, the module needs to be at

firmware version 2.02 or higher (usually 2.09). The firmware of these modules will have

already been upgraded to 2.09, if:

- the module had been installed into a BCM200/400 Rls. 4.0 (GA load)

- the module had been installed into a BCM2007400 Rls. 3.7 with patch

“BCM_370.086_CORE.08.0706” or later installed

ASM+ modules which are migrated to a BCM50 or BCM450 from a BCM200/400 Rls.

3.6 or earlier, or from a BCM 3.7 without the required patch, will still be at firmware

version 1.0.

Please note that the following GASM product codes are NOT affected by this issue,

since they have been manufactured with the required firmware version:

PEC CPC Description

NT5B16AAAJ N0018153

NT5B16AAAJE5 N0073590

GASM8 - Global 8 Station Analog Media Bay Module

Solution

Two solutions have been identified to enable the older ASM+ MBM on BCM50 and

BCM450 systems.

A.) Use a BCM50 Expansion or BCM450 Expansion to update the ASM+ firmware

 Install module in the Expansion units and power up the main unit and

expansion unit

 Power off just the expansion unit with the ASM+ MBM, leave the main

unit powered on

 Remove the module and flip the dip switch 1 of the mode/region bank to

the ON position

 Insert module into the Expansion unit and power it up again and the

firmware on the module will be updated.

 After the firmware update the module can be moved to a BCM450 main

unit if required

B.) Install module into BCM Rls. 4.0 system or BCM Rls. 3.7 system with the

required patch level to upgrade the firmware version on the ASM+ MBM

 Flip the dip switch 1 of the mode/region bank to the ON position

 Install module into a BCM 4.0 or BCM 3.7 system and boot the system up

 After the firmware update the module can be moved to a BCM450 main

unit or BCM50 system if required
