Initial Considerations
On initial installation the Phone Module will request its IP address via a DHCP server.
The analogue ports on this module will be automatically assigned to 15/30 new Users created during
the installation. The extension numbers given to these Users will commence with the next available
extension number on the system. If you wish to change this please refer to the Extension
Numbering section from page 39.
Powering up the Phone Module
1 Connect the Phone module to the system via a LAN port on the front of the Phone module. This
can be either via the network or directly to a LAN port on the Call Server. (A straight LAN cable
should be used when connecting the Phone Module to third party LAN switches.)
2 Power up the Phone Module.
3 The module will request an IP address from a DHCP server. It will make 4 attempts and then back
off for a period before trying again. The back off period will extend for each failed attempt.
4 Having obtained an IP address the module broadcasts to find a Call Server to provide its
configuration and become active.
5 The SpliceCom LED will become solid when the unit is ready.
