Power the Base Station On and Off
The VVX D230 base station turns on when you plug it into a power source such as Power over Ethernet
(PoE). Connect the power adapter to the base station if PoE isn’t available.
Don’t use the 5V adapter when you use PoE with your VVX D230 base station.
To power the base station on and off:
»
Plug an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the base station. If the base station powers on, you
have PoE, and the base station automatically obtains an IP address via DHCP.
If the base station doesn’t power on, connect its 5V power adapter.
Use only the 5V adapter supplied with the original packaging to power the base station if PoE isn’t
available. Using any other adapter voids the warranty and may cause the unit to malfunction.
Power the Handset Charger On and Off
The VVX D230 handset charger turns on when you plug in its 5V adapter.
To power the handset charger on and off:
»
Plug in the handset charger’s 5V adapter, and place the handset in the charger.
Use only the 5V adapter supplied with the original packaging to power the handset. Using any other adapter
voids the warranty and may cause the unit to malfunction.
Set Up Ethernet and PC Connections
By default, when you connect your base station to an internet router or Ethernet switch, it obtains an IP
address, a DNS, and an internet (LAN) gateway IP address via DHCP.
