Polycom KIRK Wireless Server 500 User Manual page 14

Although each facility is unique, most installations follow this basic sequence:
•
Have your PBX vendor prepare your PBX system for the installation. If you know
where the KWS500 will be installed and want your PBX vendor to install the
cabling from the PBX distribution frame to the installation site, have them do so.
See Section 2 Site Preparation.
•
After unpacking the KWS500 and verifying that all parts are present, remove the
handsets and chargers from their packaging.
•
Charge the handsets. This takes about 3 1/2 hours. See your KIRK Handset's User
Guide for charging instructions. Charged handsets are required for the handset
subscription and programming steps.
•
While the handsets are charging, first read this manual thoroughly and then
perform steps 5 through 8 below.
•
Select a suitable central mounting location for the KWS500 installation. See Section
1.5 Installation Requirements for guidelines.
•
Verify the chosen location has 120V AC power available, or provide power to the
location. A dedicated, conditioned power source
recommended.
•
If not done on step 1, provide Cat. 3 cabling from the host PBX distribution frame
(most likely located in your facility's "phone closet") to the installation site. This
cabling can be obtained from an electrical supply house. (You may use temporary
cabling if the final location is not yet certain.) See Section 2 Site Preparation.
•
(Conditional) Cat. 3 cabling contains eight wires for a total of four phone lines. If
you plan to use five or more handsets (maximum eight), you will need to run two
Cat. 3 cables from the host PBX distribution frame to the KWS500.
•
Install the KWS500. See Section 3 Installing the KIRK Wireless Server 500.
•
Subscribe the master handset. See Section 4 or 6, depending on the KIRK Handset
model chosen to be the master handset.
•
Add the remaining handsets. See Section 4 or 6, depending on the KIRK Handset
model chosen to be the master handset.
•
Check each handset for dial tone and the ability to send and receive calls.
•
Perform a walk-through of the facility to verify radio coverage
the position of the KWS500 or contact your KIRK vendor to add KIRK Repeaters
for wider coverage.
•
Program the KIRK Handsets with special features if desired. See Section 5 Handset
Special Features and your handset's User Guide.
AC current from the power company fluctuates and contains electronic "noise". This can disrupt

the operation of sensitive electronic devices and can affect audio signal quality. A power
conditioner smoothes out the power fluctuations and noise.

barriers such as walls, metal doors and cabinets, and interference from other radio signal sources.
