MODEM CONNECTION
When you connect your U-1496 to the power line, make sure you
only use the ZyXEL power adapter that is supplied with this unit.
Use of another adapter may not allow your modem to operate and
could result in serious damage to the unit. This adapter is rated
for direct connection to an AC power outlet and has a 2-meter
cord. Connect the U-1496 as shown in Fig. 3-3. Connect U-1496E in
the same way, except there is no Leased Line jack. A 2-wire
leased line can be connected to the DIAL-UP LINE jack for U-1496E
and U-1496P.
((MODE-05))
If leased line is not used, simply leave the connection out.
There are no DIP switches or configuration settings that you need
to worry about. The U-1496 comes factory pre-set and allows you
to fully configure the modem from the LCD display after you turn
the power on. User configurations are also conveniently stored in
user selectable non-volatile memories and can be recalled as
often as needed.
POWERING UP
Once the U-1496's power switch is turned ON, the U-1496 will
perform a series of diagnostic tests while a message is shown on
the LCD panel. For a more detailed description of these
diagnostic tests, please refer to Chapter 17 Diagnostics.
After performing the diagnostic tests, your U-1496 will display
the current modem settings on the front LCD panel as shown in
Fig. 3-4. Your U-1496 modem is now ready for use.
