Operating Control and Indicators
Internal Speaker Operation: The on/off speaker button allows the speaker to play or not play the audio production. The
production can be listened to during the load.
Volume & Control: Volume and tone adjustments are provided for the 8 Ohm and 600 Ohm audio outputs. These
controls do not affect the internal speaker.
Eject: Button ejects CD. CD is automatically loaded if the unit is powered up and then the CD is inserted.
Indicator Lights (LED): An indicator light on the CDL 3800 blinks following power-up of the device. 1) The light
blinks red while erasing flash memory 2) blinks orange while recording into memory and 3) blinks green while playing
the production selected. A count of 1 to 16 flashes indicates the count of the production currently loaded. 4) The light is
off if no audio production is loaded into memory.
Multiple Messages: The CDL 3800 is capable of selecting one of up to 16 productions from the same CD. Upon initial
loading of the CDL 3800 the first production on the CD is selected for playing, but you may select any other production
using the mode button during this load process or any other load process. Selection cannot be done during production
erase. To make a selection press and hold the play mode button until the orange LED blinks the corresponding production
you want to play. Release the button during or right after the orange count is displayed.
Installation
1. Mount the CDL 3800 near the Music-On-Hold port in the phone room.
2. Plug the included 12VDC wall adapter into a 120VAC outlet and into the 12VDC connector on the CDL
3800.
3. Connect one end of the provided RCA cable into the Music-On-Hold port on the telephone system. You may
require a special adaptor. (CAUTION: If the phone system uses a “punch down block” for connection to the
Music-On-Hold port, then cut off one end of the RCA cable and separate the two stranded wires. Splice a six-
inch piece of solid copper telephone wire onto each of the two separated wires from the RCA cable. Punch
the two spliced solid telephone wires into the punch down block Music-On-Hold port. Never use stranded
wire in a punch down block.)
4. Turn down the volume on the CDL 3800 and then plug the free end of the RCA cable into one of the CDL
3800 Audio RCA connectors. (Try the 600 Ohm output first because it is more energy limited than the 8
Ohm output.)
5. If the CDL 3800 is not already playing audio, then insert a production CD into the unit. The unit will
automatically download the audio production. Press the speaker button to listen to the audio production on
the CDL 3800 internal speaker. The production will play on the 8 and 600 ohm output during loading.
Loading a production CD:
1) Insert the production CD.
2) To load a different production from a multiple production CD;
a) Press the Mode button and hold it while the LED flashes the count of the production available to load.
Release the button during or right after the count of the desired production.
b) The CDL 3800 loads the production and plays it on the 8 and 600-ohm output during loading.
c) To listen to the production locally, press the speaker button at any time.
6. From a telephone (not a cell phone), call the business establishment and ask to be placed on hold.
Listen to the audio production and adjust the volume and tone controls on the CDL 3800 for proper listening
level.
Your installation is complete.
