SELECTING A LOCATION
You can set the TAD-1010’s base on a
flat surface (such as a desktop or coun-
tertop), or mount it on a wall plate or di-
rectly on the wall. The base’s location
affects the phone’s range. If you have a
choice of several locations, try each to
see which one provides the best perfor-
mance.
Select a location that is:
Near an AC outlet
Near a modular telephone line jack
Away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, and metal
walls or filing cabinets
Away from wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
If the phone line jack is not a modular
jack, you must update the wiring. You
can convert the wiring yourself, using
jacks and adapters available at your lo-
cal Radio Shack store. Or, you can let
the phone company update the wiring
for you.
Notes:
The phone company charges for
the installation of the necessary
jacks.
The USOC number of the base-
board jack to be installed is RJ11C.
