Before Installing FaxFinder

Disable Caller ID and Call Waiting on lines or PBX ports to be used with FaxFinder. FaxFinder does not support
the use of either Caller ID or Call Waiting. Caller ID delivers information between rings before the call is answered.
The Call Waiting beep causes fax communication errors.

Mounting FaxFinder (Optional)

The FaxFinder 240-IP is a table-top unit that can be rack-mounted. Mounting kits can be purchased separately.
When installing the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, follow the recommended installation defined by the
enclosure manufacturer.

Rack Safety

When installing the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, follow the recommended installation defined by the
enclosure manufacturer.
Note: The ambient temperature of the rack interior must not exceed 40° Celsius.
■
Do not place the unit directly on top of other equipment or place other equipment directly on top of the
unit.
■
If installing the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow within the rack so that the
maximum recommended ambient temperature (40° C) is not exceeded.
■ Ensure that the unit is properly connected to earth ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when
mounted within a rack.
■
If a power strip is used, ensure that the power strip provides adequate grounding of the attached
apparatus.
■ When mounting the equipment in the rack, make sure mechanical loading is even to avoid a hazardous
condition. The rack should safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it supports.
■
Ensure that the main supply circuit is capable of handling the load of the equipment. See the power label on
the equipment for load requirements.
■
Only properly qualified service personnel should install this equipment. Only connect like circuits - connect
SELV (Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to SELV circuits and TN (Telecommunications Network) circuits
to TN circuits.

Mounting FaxFinder in a 19-inch Rack

Attaching the FaxFinder to the rail of an EIA 19-inch rack enclosure will likely require two people.
1. Unpack the mounting kit. You should have two pairs of mounting brackets (four parts) and a bag of
screws.
2. Remove feet (4) from the FaxFinder unit, if they are attached.
3. Remove two screws (Figure 1) from the right side of the FaxFinder.
