Installation
Connect the Cables
1. Connect the LAN cable into the LAN port on the back of the base station.
2. Connect the other end of the LAN cable to a LAN jack.
3. Connect the power supply adapter cable to the power input jack. See
in Figure .
4. Plug the power supply adapter into an appropriate wall outlet. Ensure the
LED on the base station flashes yellow.
Install Handset Batteries
1. Release the battery cover at the bottom of the back panel and remove.
2. Insert rechargable batteries in the handset.
3. Replace the back panel and slide shut.
Set Up Handset Charger
1. Install the appropriate 2-prong wall outlet connector into the charger power
supply adapter. To remove the currently installed connector, depress the
small tab and slide it up.
2. Plug the charger’s power supply adapter into an appropriate wall outlet.
3. Place the handset in the charger. When you place the first handset in the
charger, the handset automatically registers with the base station. After the
first handset is registered, there is a 5 minute period during which you can
register additional handsets. To register additional handsets after the 5
minute period has expired, you must press the Reset button on the base
station to start a new 5 minute registration period.
4. Charge the batteries. We recommend that you charge the batteries fully
before first use. Initially, it takes approximately 10 hours to fully charge the
batteries. Normally, it takes approximately 6 hours.
