Logger Input and RJ-21X Connection / Color Codes

Typical RJ-21 Audio Logger Mating Connector

An RJ-21 cable is a standardized phone cable uses 50 wires to transmit
up to 25 channels of digital or analog data.  It is called an RJ-21x when it
is used as a "demarc" or attachment point for telcom equipment.  The
"demarc" attachment point is commonly referred to as a "Network
Interface Device".  An RJ-21X can be attached to a standard KT-66 or
110 type punchdown block, and is typically installed by the phone
company.  In many installations, the customer is responsible for all wiring

after

the RJ-21X, and the phone company is responsible for all wiring

before

the RJ-21X. The circuits on an RJ-21X are provided on

numbered tip and ring positions on a miniature 50 pin connector of the
"AMP" type. These are very common connectors used on PBX, KSU,
PBC, and distribution frames.

Storage path is the final selection.  We recommend you use a separate
hard disk or disk array for file storage.  Keeping your audio files on a
separate drive will increase performance and reliability.  If the disk
selected doesn’t have adequate space, a warning message appears.

At this point, you’re ready to start the installation…  If you receive subsequent
security warnings from Windows, allow the system to install drivers.  After the
installation is completed, it’s finally time connect the USB cable to the logger.
Power-up and attach the logger.  Make sure the factory USB cable is used.
Connect directly to the host computer, not through a USB hub.

If the recording application couldn’t detect the logger, this warning appears.
Check power and USB cabling. Power-up and attach the logger. Make sure
the factory USB cable is attached.
