Connecting to an Answering Machine
Be sure to set your
answering machine to
answer after two or
more rings, so the
Caller ID box has time
to record the call
information.
1. Plug the Caller ID box's pre-
wired telephone line cord
into the modular wall jack.
Connecting to a Two-Line Phone
To record information about calls received on a two-line
phone, you can connect two Caller ID boxes using a triplex
adapter (not supplied, available at RadioShack). Each
Caller ID box only records information about calls received
on the line to which it is connected.
Your modular phone wall jack must be an RJ14 jack wired
for two phone lines.
1. Disconnect the telephone line cord from the modular
phone wall jack, and plug it into the
triplex adapter.
2. Plug the triplex adapter into the modular phone wall
jack.
3. Plug the pre-wired telephone line cord from your Caller

You can set the Caller ID box flat on a desk, shelf or

larger than the keyhole slots in the mounting
bracket.
1. Using the keyholes in the bracket as a template,
mark the mounting screw locations on the wall.
2. Drill a hole in the wall at each marked location.
