Title: WE 1500M converted to 2500M coding question
Post by: RotoTech99 on February 20, 2022, 05:27:59 PM
Dear CRPF:

Hello, I have some question regarding a WE 1500M that was changed to a 2500M prior to my receiving it...

The base and network are dated 1-67, the dial is a 35C3A R IL 80, I added new modular jacks.

The housing is dated C79. and is is light olive gray.

The feet were replaced prior to my recieving it.

I wanted to know what the coding should be with the polarity guard and modular jacks and housing should be.

I've no plans to change the original coding, but I would like some feedback, please.

Thanks,
RotoTech99

It would now be a 2500MMG,
or 2500MMG-61 if you include the color code.

Dear Poplar1: I agree with you on the coding.

I'd given thought to adding the color code... I always wondered why WE didn't.
