Chapter 2: Getting Started
Note: The FF130/230 units have a reset switch instead of a power toggle switch. If the unit is
unresponsive, reboot the unit by using a straightened paper clip to push the recessed
button.
To reset the unit to the factory defaults, hold the button down for 3 seconds.
Caution: Use only the DC power transformer supplied with the FaxFinder. Using any other
transformer voids the warranty and can damage the FaxFinder.
FF430/830
a. Connect the power cable between the unit and a power outlet.
2. Verify Power.
●
The Power LED comes on immediately after power is applied, but there is a 4-second delay before
the Status LED comes on. The Status LED flashes during normal operation.
●
FaxFinder takes a short time to boot up when you apply power. During the boot process, the Status
LED will be solid (not flashing). When the unit is ready, the Status LED will flash.
●
If the Status LED does not start flashing after 5 minutes, disconnect and reconnect power to reboot
the FaxFinder.
3. Connect FaxFinder to Ethernet Network.
Caution: Before connecting to the Ethernet Network, determine if the network is a 192.168.2.x subnet.
FaxFinder's factory default IP address is 192.168.2.1, so connecting it to a network that as a
different device at the same IP address would cause data interference.
If it is a 192.168.2.x subnet, connect from the Administrative PC to the FaxFinder using an RJ45
Ethernet cable until the FaxFinder's IP address has been configured. When the FaxFinder's IP
address has been configured, you can connect the FaxFinder into the network.
Plug one end of your RJ45 Ethernet cable into the FaxFinder's Ethernet jack and the other end into
your network Ethernet hub. This Ethernet cable is not included with your FaxFinder unit.
4. Connecting to Telephone System
Connect the FaxFinder to either to a PBX or to POTS lines.
