Selecting the Interface Mode
NOTE: Dry Loop Mode is the
preferred interface method for
connection to your PARTNER
Plus/n communications system.
Refer to pages 2-12 through 2-15
for complete connection
information.
IMPORTANT: When using
Station Mode all CO lines for
that extension must be
REMOVED. Refer to your
PARTNER Plus/Il manual for
“Custom Line Assignment
Feature” information.
For Station Mode, “Automatic
Privacy” should be set for this
extension to avoid accidental
broadcast of phone
conversations.
Once the PARTNER PagePac module has been mounted, the PARTNER
PagePac unit can be connected to the PARTNER Plus/n phone system.
The PARTNER PagePac RJ-11 STN l/N jack provides for connection to
one of the ports on the PARTNER Plus/II system. The PARTNER
PagePac module is capable of operating in two primary modes: Station
Mode or Dry Loop Mode.
Dry Loop Mode permits the PARTNER PagePac paging system to be
connected to the Page Port on the PARTNER II and PARTNER Plus
system’s Processor Module. This option frees up one of the system station
ports (extensions). See Table 2-1 and Figure 2-2 for cabling instructions.
Station Mode can be used when there is an available station port
(extension) that will not be needed by the PARTNER Plus
or PARTNER II
system. See Table 2-1 and Figure 2-2 for cabling instructions.
Trunk Adapter Mode can be used in the event that neither a Station Port
nor a Page Port is available. In this case connections are made to one of
the PARTNER Plus or PARTNER II system trunk (line) ports and presents
a dry loop interface to the PARTNER PagePac paging systems. This
option requires the use of an AT&T PARTNER PagePac Trunk Adapter
with included power supply (PEC 5335-301). Table 2-1 and Figure 2-2
provide cabling information. See further Trunk Adapter installation
instructions on pages 2-13 through 2-15.
