Important Safety Instructions
!WARNING:
The following list provides basic safety precautions that should always be followed when using your telephone
equipment:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the equipment.
3. Unplug all telephone connections before cleaning. DO NOT use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning.
4. The product should be serviced by (or taken to) a qualified repair center when service or repair work is
required.
5. DO NOT use the product near water, for example, a wet basement location.
6. Never push objects of any kind into the slots or openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short
out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the equipment;
doing so may result in serious damage to the components.
7. DO NOT use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
8. The telephone equipment is provided with a three-wire grounding type plug. This is a safety feature. DO NOT
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug. DO NOT staple or otherwise attach the power supply
cord to building surfaces.
!CAUTION:
DO NOT block or cover the ventilation slots and openings. They prevent the product from overheating.
DO NOT place the equipment in a separate enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
Additional Safety Instructions for Installation Personnel
1. Install the equipment to meet all the environmental and electrical requirements listed in the documentation
that came with your system.
2. DO NOT install equipment during a lightning storm.
3. DO NOT install telephone jacks in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
4. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the
network interface.
5. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
6. The control unit must be securely wall mounted.

Using a 2-Slot Carrier
IMPORTANT: The processor module must already be mounted on the wall. If it is not, refer to the documentation
that came with your system.
Remove the clear, plastic protector from the
connector on the rear of the new module
(and the processor module if you are
upgrading from a stand-alone system) by
grasping the tabs and lifting.
A) Slide the second module off the processor
module and put it aside.
B) Slide the new module onto the processor
module, making sure the mounting tracks
interlock.
!CAUTION:
Do not force the module. If the module
does not insert easily, remove it, clear
any obstruction, and reinsert it.
A) Label the line and extension jacks.
B) Connect the line and telephone cords to
the appropriate jacks on the new module.
C) Route each cord through the hook on the
front of its module.
D) Connect the free end of each line cord to
the appropriate network interface jack.
E) Connect the free end of each telephone
cord to the modular connecting blocks for
system extensions.
F) Gather the line and extension cords
hanging below the hook and twist tie or wire
wrap them.

A) Before starting, remove the power cord
from the wall outlet.
B) Remove the screw from the bottom of the
wall-mounted module or modules.
C) If you are upgrading an existing
stand-alone system, skip to Step 4B.
Attach the 2-Slot Carrier to the top right
side of the two modules:
A) Align the carrier carefully and then push
firmly until the connectors on the modules
snap into the carrier.
B) Fasten the carrier to the modules using
the two #4 screws included with the carrier.
Press the power cord firmly into the power
jack on the carrier. Plug the other end of the
power cord into a properly grounded
three-prong wall outlet not controlled by a
switch.
If you are replacing the second module in a
2-Slot Carrier, remove the two screws
holding the carrier in place and gently pull
the carrier off the modules.
Re-insert the screw into the bottom of the
modules. Tighten it until the processor
module is flush against the wall. Do not
overtighten or the module will warp.
Check the green lights on the fronts of the
modules:
A) If a single light is out, power down the
carrier, reseat the module, then power up the
carrier.
B) If both green lights are out, power down
the carrier, reseat both modules, then power
up the carrier.
C) If the lights are still out, contact your local
Authorized Dealer or, in the Continental U.S.
only, you may also call the hotline.

Using a 5-Slot Carrier
IMPORTANT: The 5-slot carrier and the processor module must already be mounted on the wall. If it is not, refer to
the documentation that came with your system.
A) Move the carrier’s On/Off switch to "Off,"
and unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet.
B) Loosen the screw on the lower front of the
cover.
C) Place one hand on the handle on the
bottom front of the cover, and place your
other hand on the top of the cover. Gently
pull the cover up and away from the carrier.
A) Verify that the processor module is in the
center slot of the carrier. In the other slots,
from left to right, install modules in this order:
308EC(s), 206(s), PMVS, then 400(s) or
200(s).
NOTE: If you intend to use the FAX CNG
Detection feature (with ACS), for optimal
performance, insert the 308EC R3.0
module in slot 1. If you have a 308EC
module prior to R3.0, do not insert it in
the slot 1. Insert another module in slot 1
and insert the 308EC pre-R3.0 module in
one of the other available slots.
B) Align the module carefully in the
appropriate slot. Push slowly but firmly in the
center of the module until the connectors on
the module lock into place and the module is
attached to the rear of the carrier.
!CAUTION:
Do not force the module. If the module
does not insert easily, remove it, clear
any obstruction, and reinsert it.

If you are removing an existing module, see if
there is enough slack to remove the module
without pulling the line and extension cords
free. If necessary, label and disconnect the
cords. Then, place one hand on top of the
module. With the other hand, grip the plastic
bracket on the bottom front of the module,
and pull out the old module.
A) Label the line and extension jacks.
B) Connect the line and telephone cords to
the appropriate jacks on the new module.
C) Route each cord through the hook on the
front of its module.
D) Connect the free end of each line cord to
the appropriate network interface jack.
E) Connect the free end of each telephone
cord to the modular connecting blocks for
system extensions.
F) Gather the line and extension cords
hanging below the hook and twist tie or wire
wrap them.
G) Place the bundle of wires in the
