Installing the M-ATA

1The unit should be installed in a dry environment with at least 2 inches (5 cm) of clearance at the sides, front, and rear of the unit to allow air circulation for cooling.

2Plug in the telephone (see figure 2).

3Plug in the PC or LAN, or a LAN hub/switch.

4Plug the power adapter into the power jack on the SmartLink M-ATA (see figure 2). Connect the other end of the power cord to an appropriate AC power outlet.

5Wait 30 seconds after powering the SmartLink M-ATA on, then verify that the green Power LED is lit (see figure 2).

6By default, the M-ATA will automatically request IP network settings from the LAN using DHCP. To determine the IP address of the SmartLink, lift the handset off the attached analog phone and dial

* * * *.

Dial 1 0 0 #, listen to and record the IP address of the SmartLink. (To manually set the IP address, see appendix E, “Voice prompt configuration” on page 85 for details).

7Use a web browser to connect to the SmartLink M-ATA. The URL will be http://<ip address>. For example, if the M-ATA IP address was 10.10.10.2, the URL would be http://10.10.10.2.

Note The default password for the M-ATA is “root”.

Follow the directions of your voice service provider to set up voice services.
