Figure 2-2. MultiModemZDX Connections

To install your MultiModemZDX:

1. Attach MultiModemZDX to dial-up phone lines using the RJ11 telephone

cord. This is accomplished by plugging one end of the cable provided

with the MultiModemZDX into the telephone jack in your home or office;

and plugging the other end into the LINE jack on the MultiModemZDX.

NOTE

The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE jack on the

MultiModemZDX. Do not plug the telephone into the LINE jack or the line

cable into the PHONE jack. BABT regulations require that the

telecommunication cable be connected to the modem prior to being

connected to the network.

2. Attach your MultiModemZDX to your PC or terminal with an RS232 (or

V.24) cable (see Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2). Be sure to tighten the

mounting screws on the DB connectors.

3. Connect your telephone set to phone jack via RJ11 cable.

4. Attach your MultiModemZDX to the AC Power transformer and plugging

the AC connector into a live AC outlet.

NOTE

Use only the power supply provided with the MultiModemZDX. Use of

any other power supply will void the warranty and could damage the

modem.
