Background
When DNCS operators use the OSM method to download client application
platform software to Digital Home Communication Terminals (DHCTs), one of the
most important steps is to associate a SW TOC file for DHCT types. In System
Releases (SR) 2.5, 3.5, and 4.0 and earlier, the Digital Network Control System
(DNCS) allowed operators to click on the TOC file that they wanted to use.
However, in SR 2.7, 3.7, and 4.2, the DNCS does not allow users to select this file by
clicking. If users click on the file that they want to select, nothing happens. Instead,
operators must type the name of the TOC file that they want to use.
