Assign voice terminals to the locations based on the requirements of your
system and the needs of individual users. For example, an

attendant/receptionist at the intercom 10 location will require one of the 34-

button voice terminals or a BIS-22 voice terminal. For more information on
voice terminals and preparing them for the system connection, see "Step 3:

Connecting the Voice Terminals" under "Prepare the Voice Terminals."

Make sure the control unit power is off before plugging and unplugging
modular cords into the control unit. This prevents you from darnaging the
voice terminal module if you accidentally pull on a cord that is attached to it.
When the power is off, follow these steps to connect each voice terminal to
the system:

Place the voice terminal in its designated location.

Plug the voice terminal into the system.

If each connection only requires one modular cord, test the connection as
described in "Testing Each Voice Terminal," in "Step 3: Connecting the Voice
Terminals."

If each connection requires one or more extension cords, plug the loose end
of the voice terminal’s modular cord into the jack on the extension cord that
terminates the wiring run to the control unit. Then go back to "Testing Each
Voice Terminal" in "Step 3: Connecting the Voice Terminals."

Moving voice terminals directly connected to the control unit

To move a telephone with a direct connection to the control unit, do the
following:

Find the modular cord that terminates the wiring run from the new
location to the control unit.

Go to the control unit and locate the jack with the voice terminal’s

intercom number.

Turn the control unit off.

If another cord is in the jack with the voice terminal’s new location
number, unplug it. (Place it aside until you have use for it.)
