Installation

Security Console

Attaching cables

A telephone cord terminated at each end with an RJ11 connector is provided for telephone connection. If possible, the Console should be connected to its own telephone line to ensure that the line cannot be busy when the Console attempts to dial out. For applications where this is not practical, the Console may also share a line with an existing telephone using a ‘T’ adapter (supplied).

Note: The Security Console is not designed to operate with an RJ31X type telephone connection.
