If you have only one telephone line, the most efficient way to use your system
is to attach a cordless phone with a built-in answering machine to the
MultiPASS L6000.
If you have a separate telephone and a separate answering machine, be sure to
attach the telephone to the answering machine, and then attach the answering
machine to the MultiPASS L6000.
If you have a modem installed in your computer, you can attach it to the
MultiPASS L6000. Connect the telephone line from the wall outlet to the jack.
Then connect the line from the jack on the MultiPASS to the jack on
the modem. If others access your computer frequently through the modem, or if
you use your modem extensively, you may want a dedicated telephone line for
your modem.

Connect a
bi-directional
parallel cable to

Make sure the computer is turned off.
You can purchase a Centronics-compatible, parallel cable with bi-directional
capability from your dealer or from any computer store. Make sure the cable is
IEEE 1284-compliant.
A cable of 6.6 feet or less in length is recommended.
Align the cable connector with the interface port so the shapes match.
Gently press the cable connector into the port.
Secure the cable connector by snapping the two wire clips (located on the sides
of the port) into the cable connector.
Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel interface port
on your computer.

Plug the power cord connector into the back of the unit.
4
Attach the
power cord.
Plug the other end of the power cord into a properly grounded AC outlet
(three-pronged outlet).
The MultiPASS L6000 is equipped with a 3-prong, grounding-type plug
(the third pin is a grounding pin). This plug will only fit into a grounding-type
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into your
outlet, contact an electrician to replace your outlet (do not use a 3-to-2 adapter).
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
Do not plug the MultiPASS L6000 into the same outlet as your computer or
into an outlet shared with an appliance such as an air conditioner, electric
typewriter, or copier. These devices generate electrical noise that may interfere
with the operation of the MultiPASS L6000.
