can be configured to personalize its features for your application. Easy to install plug-in
“jumpers” are available to control the various system features. The features are changed by installing
or removing the “jumper blocks” that are provided.
You can access the jumpers by removing the two screws on the bottom of the enclosure (unplug
power first!), then slide the top cover off. Please see Table 1 for the various system features that are
controlled by the jumper settings.

All-Call Dial Feature
You can ring all the stations at the same time by using the special
All-Call feature. To use it, just dial
“#0” from any available station. To prevent excessive ring current while ringing the six station jacks,
stations 1-3 and 4-6 are rung-up independently using an alternating pattern. The ring pattern still
follows the industry standard two second ring, four second silence cadence patterns.
General Dialing Instructions
To maintain a realistic dialing sequence, “local” seven digit phone numbers, such as 985-7219 are
used. In addition, “long distance” eleven digit numbers are supported, such as 1-916-985-7219. Long
distance numbers are required whenever you begin with a “0” or “1” digit (your choice).
The six stations are numbered 1 through 6 and each responds to ten different
extension numbers.
The extension numbers, which are always two digits long, are positioned as the last two digits of the
phone number. These numbers are important since it is their job to tell P

which station to
call and ringing pattern to use.
