1.2. The Power Supply
zAn AC power adapter is required to
connect to a wall outlet. Be sure only to
use an adapter with the appropriate AC
voltage rating to prevent component
damage. A DC 15V output and 0.8A
adapter is generally used to power CTC-
1041RV Pro.
zIn addition to the adapter, there is a
rechargeable battery inside CTC-1041RV
Pro, which serves as a back-up in case of
a power failure.
zThe battery used is a Ni-MH 1300 mAH &
7.2V rechargeable battery.
zDuring normal operation, the AC power
adapter is used to supply power to CTC-
1041RV Pro and at the same time
recharge the battery.
zWhen the battery is fully charged, it serves
as a back-up power source for a period of
at least 10 hours. It takes approximately
48 hours to fully charge the battery.
zThe battery can be manually disconnected
by the battery switch located at the back.
zBattery Switch is set as ON by factory
default. If switched to OFF, the battery will
not be charged when AC power is
connected, nor will it serve as a back-up
power source when AC power is missing.

)Please make sure the battery switch is
slid back to ON position (as marked)
after manually disconnected the
rechargable battery.

1.3. Line Capture
zCTC-1041RV Pro features Master
Control over the telephone line. That
means, even if the phone line is engaged,
the CTC-1041RV Pro has the power to
circumvent the line and dial-out anyway.

)The Line Capture feature is only
available when household phones are
connected after the CTC-1041RV Pro
wiring.
For Example:
CTC-1041RV Pro has the Line Capture
function over TEL #2 and TEL #3, but not TEL
#1.
1.4. How to install the Control
Panel
Locating a suitable position for the
Control Panel
zThe Control Panel requires main power
and a constant telephone connection.
zThe Control Panel should be easily
accessible.
zThe Control Panel should not be placed in
a damp location, such as a bathroom.
zThe Control Panel should not be placed
close to any heat source, such as
microwave ovens, which can reduce
signal strength.
zThe Control Panel should not be located
alongside other radio transmitting devices,
such as mobile phones, cordless phone,
or wireless computer network (Wi-Fi)
devices.
zImportant: When drilling into a wall, ensure
there are no hidden cables or pipes.
Mounting the Control Panel
The Control Panel can be mounted on the wall
or wherever desired (e.g. on the table). Ensure
the Control Panel is fitted at approximately
chest height where the buttons, microphone,
and speaker can be easily accessed and
operated.
zUse the 2 holes of the Wall Mounting
Bracket as a template, mark off the holes’
positions.
zDrill 2 holes and insert the wall plugs if
fixing into plaster or brick.
zScrew the base to the wall.
zHook the Control unit onto the Wall
Mounting Bracket (holding the unit with
the front facing you).
