INSTALLATION
Select a location for the TAD that is
near a telephone jack and an AC outlet
and is not in the way of normal activi-
ties.
CONNECTING TO THE
TELEPHONE LINE
1. Unplug the telephone’s modular
cord from the modular phone line
jack and plug it into the
TO TEL
jack on the back of the TAD.
2. Plug one end of the supplied mod-
ular cord into the
TO LINE
jack on
the back of the TAD.
3. Plug the cord’s other end into a
modular phone line jack.
Note:
If the phone line jack is not a
modular jack, you must update the wir-
ing. You can convert the wiring your-
self, using jacks and adapters
available at your local Radio Shack
store. Or, you can let the phone com-
pany update the wiring for you.
• The phone company will charge
you for the installation of neces-
sary jacks.
The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.
CONNECTING
THE AC ADAPTER
Caution:
You must use a Class II AC
adapter that supplies 12 volts of pow-
er, delivers at least 200 milliamps, and
has a plug that properly fits the TAD’s
12V DC
jack with its center tip set to
negative. The supplied adapter meets
these specifications. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the adapter and the
TAD.
1. Insert the small round plug of the
supplied AC adapter into the
12V
DC
jack on the back of the TAD.
2. Plug the other end of the AC
adapter into a standard AC outlet.
The TAD initializes itself and the ON
LINE, MEMO, and PLAY indicators
flash six times. Then the TAD beeps
once and the ON LINE indicator lights
steadily.
