MOUNTING THE TAD

Select a location that is near both a modular telephone jack and an AC out- let. You can place the TAD on a desk, or mount it on a wall plate or directly on a wall.

Your TAD-764 connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If the jack is not a modular jack, you must update the wiring. You can convert the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the telephone company update the wiring for you. The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C, or RJ11W for a wall plate jack.

Note: Adjust VOLUME (located on the TAD’s right side) to the middle position before connecting power.
