These are generated by an FXS module. I do not know why, as I and a 
number of others see them on a semi regular basis - in my case 6 or so 
times a month and very occasionally there will be a burst of four, the 
same message but each module in numerical order on a 4 module card.

Given that a number of users see this same message on module 1, I do not 
think it is a faulty module. They do not seem to be related to phone 
usage, as they occur during times when the office is vacant.

"Ouch, part reset, quickly restoring reality" is another message seen 
less frequently.
