Confidentiality Notice
This manual is provided solely as an installation, operation, and maintenance guide and contains sensitive
business and technical information that is confidential and proprietary to GAI-Tronics. GAI-Tronics
retains all intellectual property and other rights in or to the information contained herein, and such
information may only be used in connection with the operation of your GAI-Tronics product or system.
This manual may not be disclosed in any form, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, to any third
party.
General Information
GAI-Tronics rugged telephones are ideally suited for conditions that are too harsh for a standard
telephone. The telephones operate the same as a standard telephone—simply lift the handset and dial the
desired telephone number. The telephones are fully line-powered and do not require internal batteries.
This manual applies to the following telephones:
•Model 226-001 Public Access Telephone
•Model 246-001 Indoor Rugged Telephone
•Model 256-001 Weatherproof Rugged Telephone
•Model 276-001 Flush-Mount Telephone
•Model 276-002BH Flush-Mount Behavioral Telephone
•Model 276-002BHAC Flush-Mount Behavioral Telephone
Operation
1. Lift the handset to place a call.
2. The handset receiver volume is adjustable using the handset pressbar or the volume control
pushbutton located on the front of the telephone. The volume increases with each button press in six
steps. Pressing the volume control a seventh time will reset the volume to the original level. When
the handset is returned to its cradle, the receiver volume is returned to the initial volume setting. This
behavior can be changed by the volume control jumper setting (see the Volume Control Jumper
Setting section).
3. Dial the desired number.
4. Place the handset back on-hook after completion of the call.

Installation
ATTENTION
—Installation should be performed by qualified personnel and only in
accordance with the National Electrical Code or applicable local codes.
Safety Guidelines
When installing any GAI-Tronics telephone equipment, please adhere to the following guidelines to
ensure the safety of all personnel:
•NEVER install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Install a UL Listed lightning arrestor on any telephone installed where the telephone or telephone
cable is at risk of being exposed to lightning strikes. The lightning arrestor must be installed as close
as possible to maximize the protection. It must not be installed within the enclosure supplied with the
telephone. Please consult our Service Center at 800-492-1212 for further information.
•Do not install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
•Do not touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Security Hardware
Models 226-001, 276-001, 276-002BH, and 276-002BHAC are vandal resistant. The front panel of each
of these models is attached to its enclosure with security screws. A GAI-Tronics Model 233-001 Security
Screwdriver or Torx T-25 security head tip (sold separately) is necessary to install the security screws.
Model 246-001 and 256-001 Telephones’ front panels are attached with standard Phillips head screws.
Conduit Installation Details (Applicable to Models 246-001 and 256-001)GAI-Tronics
recommends installing telephone lines in conduit to protect against accidental damage and vandalism.
The following measures help prevent moisture from entering the enclosure (see Figure 1 and Figure 2):
•Conduit should enter the enclosure from the bottom whenever possible.
•Sealed fittings should be installed at all cable entry points.
•Silicone sealant or equivalent should be applied around and inside all conduit entries to prevent
moisture ingress.
