Important! Step 2 is only required if you are transferring existing telephone numbers to ACN and
should be completed on the day of your scheduled test call. Before proceeding with the connection
of your equipment to the phone adapter, you should forward calls to your new telephone numbers.
Your new telephone numbers were sent to you in an email. If you have questions, please contact
Installation Support at 877-876-8767.
1. Lift the handset from your existing phone and enter *72. (In some areas enter 72#.)
2. At the tone, enter your new 10-digit telephone number to which your
calls will be forwarded.
3. When the call is answered, the feature has been activated. If the phone is
busy, or no one answers, repeat the steps above.
4. Test call forwarding by placing an inbound call. The call should not ring to your existing line.
5. Repeat the steps above for each phone number.
Note that once call forwarding is in place, you will not receive inbound calls until the installation of
your phone adapter is complete or call forwarding has been removed. To remove, enter *73 (or 73#).

Your phone system typically connects to your service provider within your wiring closet or panel
by one of two scenarios:
Standard Phone Cable Connections (RJ11)
• Simply move the RJ11 cables from your service provider connection to the ACN Phone Adapter.
Telecom Cross-Connect Block
(May require specialized phone tools.)
• Disconnect the existing cross-connect wires from your service provider connection and replace
with new cross-connect wires. Install an RJ11 connector on the other end of the new cross-
connect wire and then plug the RJ11 connector into the ACN Phone Adapter.
