Considerations

You can connect only one CAT to the system. You must use a serial printer such as the CAT printer. You must locate the CAT Plus within the distances noted below:

■Control unit

—14 ft. (4.27 m) direct connection

—1000 ft. (305 m) using building wiring

■Serial printer, 50 ft. (15.2 m)

■Power supply-grounded wall outlet, 4 ft. (1.22 m)

Hardware Requirements

The following hardware is required for CAT installation:

■Call Accounting Terminal, CAT Plus

■Serial printer (AT&T CAT Printer is recommended) connected by a Z200A EMI cable to the PRINTER jack of the CAT

■D8W cord and 355AF adapter connecting the SMDR port on the communications system to the SMDR jack of the CAT

A summary of the installation procedure is provided below:

1Before connecting the CAT, set the 10 CAT switches to establish the speed or baud rate for the CAT and its associated printer.

2Connect the control unit, CAT, printer, and power supply. See Chapter 5, “Connecting a Printer to the Control Unit.” Do not use an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.

3Test the CAT Plus, following the instructions provided in the documentation packaged with the application.
