Plug the system in to power it up. Once powered up, the system’s blue LED
will blink rapidly, 4 impulses per second (IPS). After 5 seconds, it will begin
blinking at the normal operational rate of 1 IPS. To ensure that the X16 system
is initialized properly, switch the “INIT” switch back and forth three times
within three seconds. When the LED returns to 1 IPS, the system will be fully
operational.

Your installation may look something
like this.
In this example, The telephone
company’s telephone lines are
connected on the right side and
telephone line 1 is looped to all of the
extensions, 1, 2, 3 and 4, which are
connected on the left side.
When ordering your telephone lines, it
is a good idea to ask for the lines to be
delivered on a “Surface Mount Jack”
or with existing installations you can
use a “Testar_2 Connecter”, which will
make the installation of the
X16
much
easier.
Telephone professionals use a
standard color code when connecting
telephones and telephone lines. The
white/blue pair, indicated by “Ext 1, 2,
3 and 4, is normally connected to the
office’s telephone jack.
One way to reconfigure this type of
installation is to remove each of the
extension (Ext) cables and connect
the white/blue cable to the red wire
and the blue/white (or solid blue) cable
to the green wire. Another way, is to
connect a “Testar_2 Connecter” (see
Ext 4), which simply slips over the
pins.
Now connect the supplied line cords
between the surface mount jack or
Testart_2 connecter and the ports in
the
X16
system. You can connect
them directly, 1 to each port, or using
the supplied splitter.

The
X16
system can be placed on a table or mounted on a wall. It should be located
close to where the telephone lines come into the building and plugged into a 110
electrical power outlet. Only the
X16
system needs to be plugged in, all of the
X16
telephones and the Cordless Telephone Module are powered by the system.
Telephone lines are usually found on the center pair (Red/Green) of the telephone jack
(RJ11). Sometimes a second line will be connected
to the outer pair (Black/Yellow) (RJ14). The
system is designed to accommodate both types
of installations. When using only the center pair,
connect 1 telephone line to each of the 4 ports in the
system. When using both the center and outer pairs,
use only ports labeled 1/2 and 3/4 to connect all 4
telephone lines.
Your existing cabling will determine how the
telephone lines will be connected to the system.
Note: The port labeled “Line1” is not used for a telephone company telephone line. It is
designed to give you access to the telephone company line 1, which is plugged into the
Central Office Port labeled 1/2. This is useful during a Power Failure or anytime you want
to access line 1 from a cordless telephone.
