5.Repeat step 4 to connect the remaining telephone equipment to each channel on your MultiVOIP. Although a MultiVOIP’s channels are often all configured identically, each channel is individually configurable. So, for example, some channels of a MultiVOIP might use the FXO interface and others the FXS.

6.Ensure that the unit is properly connected to earth ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when mounted within a rack.

This can be accomplished by connecting a grounding wire between the chassis grounding screw (see Figure 3-6) and a metallic object that will provide an electrical ground.

7.Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by placing the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON position. Wait for the Boot LED on the MultiVOIP to go off before proceeding. This may take a few minutes.

With the connections made, you are ready to contact the web GUI and begin configuring the MultiVOIP.
