1. Open the unit by gently inserting a screw driver between the DB-25
connector and the lip of the plastic case (see below). You don't have to
worry about breaking the plastic, but be careful not to bend the D-sub
connector.

Once the unit has been opened, you will be able to see the

terminal blocks located at the rear of the PC board.

2. Strip the outer insulation from the twisted pairs about one inch

from the end.

3. Strip back the insulation on each of the 2 twisted pair wires

about .25".

4. Connect

one pair

of wires to XMT+ and XMT- (transmit positive

and negative) on the terminal block, making careful note of which color
is positive, and which color is negative.

5. Connect the

other pair

of wires to RCV+ and RCV- (receive

positive and negative) on the terminal block, again making careful note
of which color is positive, and which color is negative.

Ultimately, you will want to construct a two pair cross over cable that

makes a connection with the RS-422 device as shown below:

6. If there is a shield around the telephone cable, it may be

connected to "G" on the terminal block. To avoid ground loops, we
recommend connecting the shield at the computer end only. A ground
wire is

not necessary

for proper operation of the Model 1010A.

7. When you finish connecting the wires to the terminal block, the

assembly should resemble the diagram below:
