Necessary connections
- Connect your telephone cable to the LINE/POTS port.
- Connect the Artist mainframe via a CAT5 card with the cable shown in appendix A.
OR
- Connect the Artist Mainframe via an analogue audio card (AIO 108/109) with the cable shown in appendix B. In this
application the audio interface of the codec has to be set to analogue.
- Ensure that the power supply matches the regional supply network system. Connect the power supply to the power
supply Input.
- Connect the earthing screw with an appropriate earth point.
- Connect the power supply to mains.
NOTICE Analogue connection to the Artist requires additional GPIO to TTL/Relay cable in order to dial from the intercom
system. Using the analogue connection in conjunction with a GPI cable allows dialing from the Artist. In this case the
telephone number has to be stored in the codec previously.
