Installation and Operation

Installing the WP80

• Follow all appropriate electrical codes and use only approved electrical
fittings for the installation.

• For waterproofing purposes apply Teflon tape to all glands and conduits.

• Choose a wall location that is free of obstructions and permits space for ½”

NPT conduit runs.

• Ensure mounting can support 16 lbs (7.3 kg) and any additional foreseeable
load.

• Ensure that none of the electrical connection circuits are live.

• Separate the faceplate from the housing by removing the two temporary,

factory installed screws and unplugging the wiring harness from the
faceplate.

• To change the Tone/Pulse setting to pulse, if required:

o Move the jumper from pins 1 & 2 of the Tone/Pulse connector to

pins 2 & 3.

o To change the setting back to tone move the jumper back to pins 1 & 2.

• Use the template provided or the mounting bracket to locate and drill holes
for mounting screws.

• Secure the unit to the wall.

• Bring cable into the enclosure through the conduit entrance and attach

individual wires from the exchange (Tip/Ring/Ground) to the surge arrestor,
(Tip & Ring are not polarity sensitive.). If a conduit hub is used, ensure it is
grounded to the ground stud.

• Plug the wiring harness back into the faceplate and secure the faceplate
using the tamper resistant screws and driver bit provided.

• Connect the telephone lines at the local exchange or demarcation block.

• Test the unit by making calls to and from another station.

Maintenance

• The only field repair possible is setting the dialing mode and the
replacement of fuses. All other repairs or alterations must be carried out by
Guardian Telecom or an Authorized Service Depot. See Warranty and

Disclaimer for details.

Operation

• Once your Model WP80 Telephone has been properly installed and
energized, operation is identical to most other single line telephones.

Fuse Replacement

Installation and Operation

Model WP80

See: Installing the WP80
and Fuse Replacement

• Disconnect the telephone from Tip and Ring power supplied by the PABX
or central office before attempting to replace the fuse.

• Carefully remove the front cover assembly and separate from the housing
by disconnecting the harness plugs. NOTE that the handset and all
electronics are attached to the front plate.

• Replace fuse in fuse holder.

• Carefully replace the front plate and install all 14 screws. Do not over

tighten the cover screws, there is a flexible gasket between the cover and
the body. Excessive tightening of the screws deforms the gasket and
reduces the weather resistance of the set.

WARNING!

• Replace only with a 0.25 amp 3AG fast blow fuse. Failure to do so will void
the warranty.

• If, on reconnecting power, the fuse fails, check the telephone system
wiring. The fuse protects the Tip and Ring line from the telephone system.
It is usually powered at 48 volts DC and must not be connected to 120 volts
AC.

Tip: Use the drive bit for
tamper resistant screws
supplied with the
telephone

Guardian Product Return

Guardian products have been quality tested and are in full working order when
shipped from the factory, given the rugged nature of these products, shipping is not
expected to damage a unit. In the unlikely event of a malfunction, Guardian follows the
three step procedure below.

Step I - On-Site Correction

• The most common source of difficulties with a new product is improper installation
in one of two ways: incorrect wiring connections or connection to an incorrect
power source.

• Product wiring needs to be properly connected to the on-site wiring. Correct wiring
instructions are shown in the user manual included with the product.

• Connecting a telephone to a standard power source, rather than tip & ring, will
blow the telephone’s internal, user-replaceable fuse. In the event of fuse burn-out,
disconnect the telephone from the power source, replace the fuse, and reconnect
following the wiring diagrams provided with the product.

Installation and Operation

Model WP80

Step II - Return Materials Authorization (RMA)

• When a product has been installed following user manual instructions, and the unit
fails to operate, the user must contact Guardian Telecom to obtain authorization to
return the product. This can be done by done by completing a RMA form online at
www.guardiantelecom.com, or by calling the service telephone number given in
this manual.

• After providing information on the product, the owner and the nature of the
problem, Guardian will issue a RMA number, to be shown on documentation
returned with the product.

• In addition to the RMA number, shipping documents should include name, address
and telephone number of the owner along with contact information for the person
responsible for the repair and/or the user who identified the malfunction.

• (Where a product is being returled for repair from outside of Canada, customs
documentation must show the product’s serial number, date of export [date of
purchase], and a notation that the equipment is: “Canadian goods returning.”)

Step III - Factory Authorized Service

• Once received, each product is carefully inspected and tested. If the product is
under warranty, repairs are completed and the product returned to the owner,
generally within five working days of receipt by the factory.

• A product that has been subjected to misuse, neglect or accident or is beyond the
warranty period will be evaluated. The service department will provide the owner’s
representative with a repair cost estimate. Once approved, repairs are completed
and the product returned, generally within five working days.
