To connect the CALLMASTER VI to the PC, do the following steps:

1.Insert the 9-pin male connector at one end of the EIA/TIA cable into the female D-subminiature connector located in the back of the CALLMASTER VI, labeled “EIA.” Tighten both connector retaining screws.

2.Insert the 9-pin female connector at the other end of the EIA/TIA cable into an unoccupied COM port in the PC. Tighten both connector retaining screws.

NOTE: Write down which COM port connection is being used, because this information will be required during the software installation process.
