CHAPTER 3: Installation
3.8 Connecting Caller ID Equipment to the ASD-4
You can use Caller ID equipment with your ASD-4 to pre-screen your calls.
For Caller ID equipment to work, it must receive two complete rings from
the phone copmpany. However, the ASD-4 is factory-preset to answer all calls
on one ring. To accommodate the Caller ID service, you must program the
ASD-4 to answer calls on two rings (see
Section 5.4.7
).
To connect Caller ID equipment directly to the ASD-4, as shown in Figure
3-7 on the next page, first install the ASD-4 using the procedure that’s right
for your site (refer to
Sections 3.3
through
3.7
). Then follow these steps:
1. Take the telephone cable that runs from from the wall jack to the ASD-4’s
LINE-IN port, and unplug it from the wall jack. Plug the free end into the
phone jack of the Caller ID equipment. This jack may be labeled “Phone.”
2. Plug one end of another telephone cable (which you’ll have to provide if
one isn’t provided with your Caller ID equipment) into the telephone-line
jack on the Caller ID equipment. This jack may be labeled “Line,” “Line
In,” or “Telephone Line.”
3. Plug the other end of the second cable into the wall jack where the
ASD-4 was connected.
NOTE
Don’t connect Caller ID equipment to the ASD-4’s TAD, PHONE, FAX, or
MODEM ports. Caller ID equipment requires data that is carried by the
phone company’s ring signals; it will not operate from the ring signal
generated by the ASD-4.
