CONNECTING VOICE TERMINALS TO THE SYSTEM
TESTING THE VOICE TERMINALS
To connect each voice terminal to the system, do the following:
1Place the voice terminal in its designated location.
2Plug the voice terminal into the system either by direct connection or through a jack field.
Connecting a voice terminal to the control unit directly requires one or more modular cords. Connect one end of the cord to the jack on the voice terminal. Connect the other end of the modular cord to a station port on a system module in the control unit. Refer to “Connecting Voice Terminal Wiring Directly” on page
Connecting a voice terminal to the control unit through a jack field requires that cables from the voice terminals and control unit be connected to a jack field. Refer to “Jack Field Wiring” on page
.
Perform the following steps to verify that the voice terminals are connected properly.
1Make sure that the Test/Program switch on the left side of each voice terminal is set to the center position. This step prevents the phones from ringing when the power at the control unit is turned on.
2If the power to the control unit is not turned on, turn on the power at the control unit using the procedure described in “Applying Power to the System” on page
3Slide the T/P switch to T. On some voice terminals you will have to hold it there to keep it from springing
back to the center position.
All the red and green lights on the voice terminal begin flash, and a tone sound.
4 Slide the T/P switch to the center position.
The lights stop flashing and the tone stops.
