Connecting the PC to the Telephone

If you are using a CallMaster VI telephone (see Figure 1-3):
1. Plug the EIA-232-D Connector cord (including adapter, if
necessary) into the communications (COM) port on the PC. If more
than one port is available, write down the number of the port to
which you physically attach the cord. Tighten all retaining screws.
2. Plug the remaining end of the EIA-232-D Connector cord (including
adapter, if necessary) into the 9-pin interface at the top of the
telephone. Tighten all retaining screws.
3. Connect one end of the 2-wire DCP cord to the jack at the top of the
telephone.
4. Plug the remaining end of the 2-wire DCP cord into the wall jack.
Skip the procedure to connect the PC/telephone configuration to a
separate power supply. The CallMaster VI is powered by the switch
and does not require an independent power supply.
