INSTALLATION
SELECTING A
LOCATION
You can set the TAD-1016’s base on
a flat surface (such as a desk or
counter top), or mount it on a wall
plate or directly on the wall. The
base’s location affects the phone’s
range, so if you have a choice of sev-
eral locations, try each to see which
gives the best performance.
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
local RadioShack store. Or, you can
let the phone company update the wir-
ing for you. The USOC number of the
jack to be installed is RJ11C.
Placing the Base on a
Desktop
1. Plug one end of the supplied mod-
ular cord into the
TEL LINE
jack on
the back of the base.
2. Plug the modular cord’s other end
into a modular phone line jack.
3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s
barrel plug into the
DC IN 9V
jack
on the back of the base.
