3.1 Pre-Installation
Please read the following guidelines concerning installation and connection before installing the ARIA SOHO IP
System. Be sure to comply with applicable local regulations.
3.1.1 Safety Installation Instructions
When installing the telephone wiring, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and personal injury, including the following:
Never install the telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install the telephone jack in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Never touch un-insulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Anti-static precautions should be taken during installation.
3.1.2 Installation precautions
The ARIA SOHO IP System is designed for wall mounting or a free –standing rack. Avoid installing in the following
places:
In direct sunlight and hot, cold, or humid places. Temperature range = 0 to 40
o
C.
Places where shocks or vibrations are frequent or strong.
Dusty places, or places where water or oil may come into contact with the System.
Near high-frequency generating devices such as sewing machines or electric welders.
On or near computers, fax machines, or other office equipment, as well as microwave ovens or
air conditioners.
Do not obstruct the openings on the top of the ARIA SOHO IP System.
Do not stack up the optional service boards.
3.1.3 Wiring Precautions
Be sure to follow these precautions when wiring:
Do not wire the telephone cable in parallel with an AC power source, such as a computer, fax
machine, etc. If the cables are run near those wire, shield the cables with metal tubing or use
shielded cables and ground the shields.
If the cables are run on the floor, use protectors to prevent the wires from being stepped on.
Avoid wiring under carpets.
Avoid using the same power supply outlet for computers, fax machine, and other office
equipment to avoid induction noise interruption when using the ARIA SOHO IP near other
machines.
The power and battery switches must be OFF during wiring. After wiring is completed, the power
switch may be turned ON.
Incorrect wiring may cause the ARIA SOHO IP System to operate improperly.
If an extension does not operate properly, disconnect the telephone from the extension line and
then re-connect, or turn the System power OFF and then ON again.
Use twisted pair cable for connecting CO lines.
