1.4 PLUGGING INTO THE BACK PANEL
1.4.1 Attaching telephone lines to TalkSwitch line jacks
You can connect your telephone lines from the wall jack(s) to the TalkSwitch
line jacks with the phone cables provided. Take note of which telephone line
is connected to which line jack on TalkSwitch — this information will be
used in the configuration section.
L1-L2
(all TalkSwitch
models);
L3-L4
(TalkSwitch
48 models only)
This is where you plug in your RJ-11 telephone lines. If
you have 2 lines out of 1 phone jack, you can plug into
the 1/2 and 3/4 jacks. Use a surge protector if you live in
an area prone to lightning strikes.
USB Use the USB port if your PC supports USB connectivity.
You cannot use the USB and the Serial port
simultaneously.
SERIAL
(optional)
Attach a Serial cable (RS232 — not included) to connect
TalkSwitch to your PC.
MEMORY SLOT Use the memory slot, located on side of the box, to
expand internal memory for Voicemail, Auto Attendant
messages and music. TalkSwitch Memory cards can be
purchased from your local TalkSwitch reseller or from
www.talkswitch.com. Place the memory card in the slot.
TalkSwitch detects and starts using the extra memory
within 20 seconds.
POWER Plug in the supplied AC Power Adapter.
(Rating — 16VAC 1.5 A output)
Do not use any other power adapter. It may cause damage
to the unit.
Note: The ‘PF’ box in between E4 and L1/L2 represents power failure
support. In the event of a power failure or loss of power to TalkSwitch,
Extension 114 is able to receive and make calls on Line 1.
Note: We recommend that you connect surge protectors between
TalkSwitch and your telephone lines to protect against lightning damage.
