Follow these steps to connect the E911 adjunct to the control unit:
1. Program the E911 adjunct equipment according to its user manual.
2. Assign ground-start (recommended) or loop-start trunks to the E911 
adjunct. Up to five trunks may be assigned.
3. Connect each central office trunk cable to the appropriate port on the E911 
adjunct.
4. Connect one end of a cable to the port on the E911 adjunct that connects 
to the system control unit and the other end to a ground-start or loop-start 
line port (corresponding to whether the central office trunk is ground-start 
or loop-start) on a module in the control unit.
5. Assign the E911 Adjunct Alarm Extension and the extension number (the 
first operator position is the factory setting) to which the E911 Adjunct 
Alarm calls will be sent.
6. Connect a cable from the Alarm port on the E911 adjunct to the E911 
adjunct alarm relay.
