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.
