NOTE:
In order for your 8411 voice terminal to operate, the voice terminal must
have auxiliary power, either locally using an MSP-1 or remotely using an
1145B1 closet supply. Also, before you set up your PassageWay
connection, you must know which COM port number (that is, COM1, COM2,
COM3, or COM4) to which you are connecting your 8411 voice terminal.
