(ASCEND) Link status '-' on a P75?



Hi,

On Friday I had a user ring me saying his P75 had stopped working, and
after a quick run through a few things, I got him to telnet to the box
and tell me the line status, which was a '-', as were B1 and B2. 
Ringing
the box on a normal analog phone got me an engaged tone.  Reset the P75,
no change.

Strange I thought, so I popped a look at the Ascend BRI troubleshooting
guide (http://www.ascend.com/2491.html) which confirmed that it should
only be one of 'P', '.' or 'X'.

So I configured one of my spare P75's and sent him on his way, but this
morning I received a phone call from someone else, and it turned out to
be
the same thing.  The customers were opposite sides of the UK, so I could
rule out a local exchange problem.

Both customers are using ISDN-2 (Switch Type=U.K.) as opposed to ISDN-2e
(Net 3) and have been using the line regularly.

Anyone know what this '-' on the Link Status means?

Many thanks,
Aron
