4 cm of the cable extend from the bead (on the end you

reset the cable.

For two-wire leased-line or dial-line modems:

a) Plug the telephone cable into the modem’s LINE

connector (Figure 1-3) and to the telephone wall jack.

b) To use a telephone set on the same line as the modem,

ensure that the ferrite bead (if included) is installed on
the cable; then plug it into the modem’s PHONE
connector.

For two- or four-wire leased-line/dial-line modems:

a) Optionally, plug an analog dial line telephone cable

into the modem’s PHONE LINE connector
(Figure 1-3) and to the telephone wall jack.

b) Ensure that the ferrite bead (if included) is installed on

a leased-line cable; then plug it into the modem’s
LEASE connector.

Set the modem power switch to the On (1) position. The modem
executes self-tests. A modem indicates test results as follows:

• Successful completion: MR LED steady on.
• A problem by setting LEDs in one of these ways:

— MR: slowly blinking. TR: on. OH: off. CD: off.
— MR: off. TR: on. OH: on. CD: on.

You can also check self-test completion with Fast’RVu. Select
Status, then select:

• EIA to display DCD, DTR, DSR, CTS, and RTS signal states
• Device to display rate and mode parameters that describe the

modem’s current state

Note the LED pattern. Report any problem to Motorola Support.
