STEP 1: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
The unit is ready for action as soon as it's setup, but first you'll need to find a spot for it. Ideally,
the console is located in a central part of your home so that it is easy to hear throughout. For
successful setup, you'll need a location with:
• Active home phone service (near a wall jack or modem / router).
• A power outlet not controlled by a wall switch (don't want to accidentally shut it off!)
STEP 2: POWERING UP
Plug A/C power cord included in the shipment into back of unit. The console will turn on.
In The Home has a backup battery (in case you ever lose power) that can run for 72 hours. There
may be a rubber cap covering the switch; remove and turn to ON. Please note it may take 2-3
days to fully charge. Power light will flash during this time and will go solid when fully charged.
STEP 3: THE PHONE LINE (MOST
Plug one end of the phone line that came with In The Home into the port marked LINE. Plug the
other end of that line into your wall jack or modem/router.
• May require disconnecting your home phone if it's connected at this location.
• Do NOT use the TEL port yet.
IF your phone is connected at this location use your current phone line to connect phone with the
port marked TEL. Unit will act as a splitter so that your phone is functioning just like normal.
