Installing the PassageWay Adapter
This section describes how to connect the PassageWay adapter to your PC
and your telephone. Only perform the steps in this section if your
PassageWay adapter is not installed already or if you do not have an 8411
telephone or a Callmaster VI telephone. If you have an 8411 telephone, see
“Connecting Your 8411 Telephone to Your PC.” If you have a Callmaster VI
telephone, see “Connecting Your Callmaster VI Telephone to Your PC.”
The PassageWay adapter provides an interface between your PC and your
telephone, enabling you to access the DEFINITY system from your PC. The
PassageWay adapter has a 9-pin connector for 9-pin serial ports. If you have
a 25-pin serial port on your PC, use the 9-pin to 25-pin cable to connect the
PassageWay adapter to your serial port.
The PassageWay adapter requires auxiliary power. Before installing the
PassageWay adapter, consult your System Manager to determine whether
your telephone has auxiliary power. If your telephone does not have auxiliary
power, refer to “Install the PassageWay Adapter with a Local Power Supply.”
If your telephone has auxiliary power, refer to “Install the PassageWay
Adapter with Telephone Closet Power.”
NOTE:
Do not install the PassageWay adapter while you are active on a call.
