Connecting and Testing Telephones
Hotline
Phone
1 To connect a phone, plug the mod-
ular telephone mounting cord into a
modular wall jack or directly into a 206
module extension jack. (If you are con-
necting a standard phone and its
mounting cord is loose, use an AT&T
D2R mounting cord instead.)
To install two phones (or other devices)
on a single extension jack, see Figure
2-2 on page 2-5.

Test the telephone for proper op-
eration. To test the power and lights on
a MLS- or MLC-model phone, press
and hold the [
# ] button for five
seconds. Before releasing the [
# ]
button, lift the handset. All lights should
light, the ringer should sound, and (on
the MLS-12D or MLS-34D phones only)
a test pattern should appear on the
display. (If not, call the Helpline.)
Replace the handset; the phone is now
in normal operating mode.
