Installation
Save Your Packing
!
You MUST save ALL packing material supplied with this
unit. If the system must be sent in for any reason and you do not
use the supplied packing material, you WILL be charged for the
replacement of this material. This packing material has been
designed to give the system maximum protection during the
shipping process.
While every precaution has been taken in preparation of
this OPERATION MANUAL, the manufacturer does not
assume any liability for errors or omissions. The manufacturer
reserves the right to make changes in the specifications of this
unit at any time without notice.
Location
!
When selecting a location for the system, the following
conditions MUST be avoided:
Temperatures above 95°F.
Temperatures below 65°F.
Carpeted areas that produce Static Electricity.
High dust/tobacco smoke areas.
Exposure to direct sunlight.
The SYSTEM and the POWER CUBE should be located
in a well ventilated area. It should be noted that the POWER
CUBE can get quite warm during operation. Make sure that
both a three-prong power outlet and a proper telephone jack are
within six feet of the installation site.
Business Telephones
!
This system is not compatible with modular jacks used for
multi-line ELECTRONIC PHONE SYSTEMS. To connect the
SYSTEM to this type of phone system, an RJ-11 jack must be
ordered from your local telephone company. It should be noted
that when the BA-1000 is used, the line indicator lights on the
phone system will not show the line as being used.
Single Line Phones
!
If you have a single line phone it is probably connected to
a small modular jack. Simply unplug the phone and plug the
system in. If you wish to have both the phone and the system
connected at the same time you can plug the phone into the
PHONE jack on the back of the BA-1000.
Order A Phone Jack
!
If you need to order a jack from the telephone company,
you will need the following information:
FCC No: AP494N-64812-MA-E
RINGER EQ.:0.0B
USOC No (Jack type) RJ-11, RJ-12, or RJ-13 (See
telephone connection)
Power
!
The SYSTEM can be used on a three-prong grounded
110VAC power outlet. This is needed for proper protection of
the unit's circuitry. Power circuits that are used for any heavy
equipment such as large freezers, blowers, heaters, copiers, or
any electrical equipment that contains large motors, should be
avoided. Heavy electrical equipment can cause power glitches
over the power line which could interfere with the operation of
the system. If your power lines are excessively noisy a power
filter MIGHT solve the problem.
Power Out Protected
!
The numbers stored on disk and the setup and clock
information is backed up with a 10 year battery. If power fails
at any time, the unit will remember if it was dialing or in answer
mode, and it will pick up where it left off.
Phone Connection
!
The system's telephone line requirements are the same as a
standard telephone. Its connection to the telephone line is the
same as any NORMAL single line telephone that you could buy
at any department store.
