Getting Started
Base Station Installation
For best performance, maintain a distance of at least 1 meter (about 3
feet) between the base station and other electronic devices (e.g., TV,
computer, stereo, fax machine, answer machine, cordless phone, etc.)
.
1. Install base station antenna.
The base station's antenna port has a reverse-thread connector; to
install antenna or cable, turn counter-clockwise; to remove, turn
clockwise. Improper installation may damage the connector.
2. Plug the transformer end of the base station AC/DC adaptor into a
standard AC electrical power outlet, plug the other end into the DC In
jack on the back of the base station.
a. The base adaptor's DC plug is larger in dimension than the charger's
DC plug. The charger adaptor's DC plug will not fit into the base's
DC In jack.
b. The base station's power supply (DC Adaptor) and telephone line
should be plugged into a surge protector with phone line protection.
3. Plug one end of the phone cord into one of the 4 phone jacks marked L1
~ L4 and plug the other end into the telephone outlet. Since DuraFon
PRO has the built-in line detection feature, it is okay to plug in the
phone jacks in random order.
4. Connect an external telephone answering device by following the
instructions that come with the answering device. An exemplary
configuration: install the external answering device in-between the
wall phone jack(s) and the Base Station. Either a multiple of single-
line answering devices or a multiple-line answering device can be
used.
