Connectivity Test
The procedures Phone/IP Starter Configuration and Phone Book Design must be completed before
you can do this procedure.
1. These connections must be made:
• VOIP-1-2-4-8 to local phone station
or
• VOIP-1-2-4-8 to extension of key phone system
• VOIP-1-2-4-8 to command PC
• VOIP-1-2-4-8 to Internet
2. Inbound Phonebook and Outbound Phonebook must both be set up with at least one entry in
each. These entries must allow for connection between two VoIP units.
3. Console messages must be enabled. (If this has not been done already, go, in the GUI, to
Configuration | Logs and select the “Console Messages” checkbox.
4. You now need to free up the COM port connection (currently being used by the VOIP-1-2-4-8
configuration program) so that the HyperTerminal program can use it. To do this, you can
either (a) click on Connection in the sidebar and select “Disconnect” from the drop-down
box, or (b) close down the configuration program altogether.
5. Open the HyperTerminal program.
6. Use HyperTerminal to receive and record console messages from the VOIP-1-2-4-8 unit. To
do so, set up HyperTerminal as follows (setup shown is for Windows NT 4.0; details will differ
slightly in other MS operating systems):
