•
Verify the product package contents are complete. Refer to the contents sheet included
in the packaging to determine if all the items were shipped in the box.
•
Before you connect the hardware, make sure that all devices are powered off.
•
Connect telephones to the PHONE ports on the Quadro’s rear panel. You may connect
as many phones as PHONE sockets are available. PHONE socket 1 must be con-
nected to a telephone to enable lifeline support functionality.
Please Note:
PHONES 1-3 (1-2 in case of Quadro2x) will ring simultaneously, if a
PSTN call comes in. PHONE 4 is preconfigured for a fax machine.
•
Connect at least one of Quadro's LINE (FXO) ports to the telephone service from the
PSTN. The Quadro2x offers connectivity of one line, Quadro4x two lines, and the
Quadro16x four lines. If you use a Quadro4xi, connect the Quadro's ISDN port to the
digital telephone service (or to an ISDN port of a PBX).
Please Note:
If your Internet connection is a DSL modem, you may need to use a mi-
cro filter between the FXO LINE port and the phone line. Micro filters are typically pro-
vided by your ISP but are also available at most computer stores. If a micro filter is al-
ready installed, simply connect the RJ11 from the existing phone to the Quadro FXO
port leaving the micro filter connection as is.
•
Connect the Ethernet port on your PC via a straight CAT 5 cable with an RJ45 connec-
tor to the LAN socket of the Quadro. If a hub or switch is connected between the
Quadro and your PC, use a crossover cable from the LAN interface of the Quadro to
the hub/switch.
•
Connect the WAN port of the Quadro to the Internet service via a cable or DSL modem.
•
Power up the DSL or Cable modem first.
•
Connect the power adapter to the POWER port on the Quadro’s rear panel and plug
the power adapter into a power outlet. Only use the original power adapter and plug it
into a power strip with surge protection or to a UPS if available.
The red LED (Fault) will glow for several seconds followed by the yellow LED (Info),
which will glow for several minutes. When Info turns off, the Quadro is operational.
•
Power up any hub or switch followed by any PC and other devices on the LAN side.
Please Note:
The PC must be configured for DHCP to receive an IP address directly
from the Quadro. Refer to
for instructions on setting up a
PC for DHCP operation.
•
Check the LEDs: The green Busy LED must glow continuously. The green LAN and
WAN LEDs will blink when cables are connected to these ports and all devices are
powered up. If the green LAN and WAN LEDs do not blink, verify cabling and ensure
that all devices are powered up.
Please Note:
CAT 5 cables can be faulty without any visual indication. The LAN and
WAN LEDs verify that the Ethernet connection is established between the end points. If
these LEDs are not illuminated, there is a connection problem between the Quadro and
the other device. Some modems, hubs, switches and routers will require the use of
crossover cables.
