Bandwidth, Switches 2-3

Sets the fidelity of audio messages. There is a trade-off between audio quality and recording time: The higher the audio quality, the less the storage time.

The minutes of memory equipped on your unit (4, 8, 16, or 32) is printed on the serial number label on the bottom of the unit, and assumes a bandwidth 3.5KHz. The 7.0KHz setting provides better audio quality, but reduces the amount of recording time by one-half (i.e. a 16 minute unit can only store 8 minutes of audio). Similarly, the 7.0E KHz setting provides even better audio quality than the 7.0KHz setting, but also reduces the amount of audio storage, in this case an additional 25% over the 7.0KHz setting. See the message memory table on page 8 for audio storage times for different memory and bandwidth configurations.

Speaker On/Off Switch

This switch turns the internal speaker on (switch on) and off (switch off). Note the speaker’s volume cannot be adjusted. The output level knob only adjusts the level of the output signal provided to the phone system, not the volume of the internal speaker.

Step 2 – Connections

Locate the SoundBrick 500 within 6 feet of a 110VAC outlet. The unit is designed to be placed on a flat, level surface or securely mounted on a wall. Be sure to leave clearance for connections and adjustments.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Devices that emit strong electromagnetic fields such as computer monitors and fluorescent lights may interfere with message loading, so locate the unit at least a few feet away (or farther if necessary) from such devices.

To help protect against power surges and other electrical problems, the use of a quality surge suppressor strip (which is different from a standard multi-outlet power strip) is strongly recommended. Damage caused by power surges, lightning, or other electrical problems are not covered under warranty.
