may be part of a Profile system.

• 

Codec C20

• 

Codec C40

• 

Codec C60

• 

Codec C90

Check the system information page on your codec to make sure its software 

version is TC4.1 or later. If not, contact your Cisco representative. 

1. 

Restart the codec before you proceed with the installation.

2. 

Connect the touch screen cable to the Power adapter. 

3. 

Connect the shielded Ethernet cable between the Power adapter and the LAN 

(Ethernet) socket.

4. 

Connect the supplied power cable between the Power adapter and the power 

socket. Once power is connected, the touch screen start-up procedure begins. 
Wait while the touch screen initializes. Continue when the

If your codec is password 

protected, you will be prompted 

for an administrator username 

and password to sign in to the 

codec. 
Continue when the menu and 

contact list appear on the touch 

screen.
