THUNDERSTORM AND LIGHTNING WARNING:

DO NOT USE Tieline codecs during thunderstorms and lightning. You may suffer an injury
using a phone, Tieline codec, or any device connected to a phone during a thunderstorm.
This can lead to personal injury and in extreme cases may be fatal. Protective devices can
be fitted to the line, however, due to the extremely high voltages and energy levels involved
in lightning strikes, these devices may not offer protection to the users, or the Tieline
codec and equipment connected to the codec.

Secondary strikes can occur. These secondary strikes are induced by lightning strikes
and also produce dangerously high currents and energy levels. You only need to be near
an object struck by lightning to lead to personal injury or damage to equipment. e.g. if you
are located near a lighting tower at a sports facility, water features and drains on golf
courses, you will be affected by these secondary strikes.

Damage to personnel and Tieline codecs may occur during thunderstorm, even if the codec
is turned off but remains connected to the phone system or the power.

ANY DAMAGE TO A TIELINE PRODUCT CAUSED BY LIGHTNING or an ELECTRICAL
STORM WILL VOID THE WARRANTY. Use of this product is subject to Tieline's
SOFTWARE LICENSE and WARRANTY conditions, which should be viewed at

www.tieline.com/support before using this product.

DIGITAL PHONE SYSTEM WARNING:

DO NOT CONNECT YOUR Tieline CODEC TO A DIGITAL PHONE SYSTEM.
PERMANENT DAMAGE MAY OCCUR! If you are unfamiliar with any facility, check that
the line you are using is NOT a digital line. If the Tieline codec becomes faulty due to the
use of a digital phone system, the WARRANTY WILL BE VOID.

WARNING:

HIGH LEAKAGE CURRENT. EARTH CONNECTION ESSENTIAL BEFORE CONNECTING
SUPPLY.
If the total leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA, or if the leakage current of the connected
loads is unknown, connect the supplementary ground terminal to a reliable ground
connection in your facility.

Supplementary ground connection

A supplementary ground terminal is provided on the codec to connect the unit to a ground
connection. The ground terminal has an M4 stud with M4 retaining nuts and is compatible
with all grounding wires. Remove only NUT 2 to connect your ground wire. The ground wire
must have a suitable lug. When refitting NUT 2 ensure that both NUT 1 & NUT 2 are
correctly tightened to establish and maintain a proper earth connection.
