Modular Jack Test

If you know the type of modular jacks you will be using, this test is not necessary.

1Plug the line cord, with the clear modular plugs, into the jack labeled L1 or L1/L2 on the back of the phone. Plug the other end into the modular jack you intend

to use.

1Connect coiled cord to phone and handset and hang up.

2Pick up the handset. You are on Line 1. Listen for a dial

tone, then press LINE 2 and listen again.

•If you hear a dial tone on both lines, the jack you’ve chosen is wired for two lines (two different phone numbers coming from one jack).

You should follow directions for two-line jack.

•If you hear a dial tone on only one line, the jack has only one line. Locate the jack for your other line. You should follow directions for two

separate jacks.
