NOTE
Before connecting your Conference 1 to anything you believe to be a
standard phone line—especially at a corporate site with a large number
of phones—verify that you have standard analog phone service. If you
have digital (PBX) telephone service, you’ll need a digital-to-analog
telephone-line converter. See
Section 3.4.6
.
To connect your Conference 1 to a standard telephone line, take these steps
(referring to Figure 3-3 on the next page):
1. The Conference 1’s power supply has three cords attached to the
transformer. Take the one terminated with an RJ-11 plug and plug it into a
standard telephone-system wall jack.
2. Plug the power supply’s long base-unit cord—the one terminated with an
RJ-45 plug—into the Conference 1 base unit’s RJ-45 jack, labeled LINE on the
bottom of the unit.
3. Plug the power-supply’s AC-input cord into a working standard 120-VAC
electrical outlet. (If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch, turn it on.) The
Conference 1 should play a sequence of self-test sound effects to indicate that
it’s receiving power.
4. Press the ON/OFF button to check for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, the
Conference 1 is ready for operation. If you don’t, see
Section 5.2
.
