2 / 5 AdvisorOne PSTN Module Installation Sheet
3. Remove the screw securing the panel chassis. Open the panel by pressing down on the tabs and carefully swing the panel
chassis open.
CAUTION: Use static electricity precautions when handling electronic components.
4. Disconnect the battery from the battery connector (E in Figure 2) by pressing down on the wire end of the battery clip.
5. To access the location of the PSTN module, remove the Communication Modules Cover by pulling outward on the tabs (D in
Figure 2) and then lifting upward when tabs release.
Installing the PSTN Module
1. Install the PSTN module (A in Figures 1 and 3) into the PSTN module location (with the label side up). Carefully align the
headers of the PSTN module (B in Figures 1 and 3) with the pins on the circuit board. Press into place.
Note: The PSTN module must be installed in the PSTN designated slot (marked PSTN in the plastic). DO NOT force the
module into place.
2. Route the PSTN module wire (C in Figures 1 and 3) and place the wire into the clips (G, H and I) in Figure 3). Plug the module
wire connector into J10 (J in Figure 3).
3. Connect the supplied phone wire to the panel.
4. To connect the panel to the phone line (full line seizure with an RJ31X jack and PSTN):
Note: Full line seizure allows the panel to take over (seize) the phone line, even if another device on the line is in use. This
method requires that the panel be wired before all other phones, answering machines, computers, or other devices on the
phone line. Verify the line seizure for UL installations.
The RJ31X (CA-38A) jack provides a method of
quickly disconnecting the panel from the phone
line.
A. Run a four-conductor cable from the
premises Telco block to the RJ31X.
Connect the cable to the RJ31X as shown.
B. Disconnect the green and red premises
phone jack wires from the Telco block and
splice them to the four-conductor cable
black and white (or yellow) wires. Use
weatherproof wire connectors for these
splices.
C. Connect the four-conductor cable green
and red wires to the Telco block TIP (+)
and red to RING (-) posts.
D. To access the location of the PSTN
connector, remove the Terminal Cover by
pressing the tabs down (F in Figure 2) and
rotating the cover upward.
E. Connect one end of the PSTN cable to the
RJ31X and the other end to the PSTN
connector K in Figure 3) on the panel.
5. Secure the Terminal Cover onto the panel.
Make sure the tabs are engaged.
6. Reinstall the Communication Modules Cover by pressing the cover down until the tabs (D in Figure 2) snap into place.
Note: The Terminal Cover and the Communication Modules Cover must be secured for proper operation.
7. Supply power to the panel as noted in Table 1.
