It is important that you place the IP extensions on the same subnet as TalkSwitch. For example,
if your TalkSwitch unit has the IP address 192.168.1.200, your IP extensions should use IP
addresses in the range 192.168.1.xxx that do not conflict with other IP addresses.

Power up all the TalkSwitch units

Connect the provided AC adapters to each unit and plug the adapters into available power
outlets. Turn the units on by pressing the Power button on the front of each unit. The lights on
the front panels of the units will flash. This means they are powered up and connected to the
LAN, but their ID numbers are not set.

Setting or changing the unit ID

Units are shipped from the manufacturer with unit ID 1. If two or more units are placed on the
same LAN with the same unit ID number, it causes a conflict. The four line lights on the front
panel of each unit will start flashing. You have to assign a different unit ID to each unit.
1. Connect an analog phone to one of the extension jacks on the unit.
2. Press # to enter command mode.
3. Dial the system password + #.
4. Now, you have the following options:
Keys
Result
00 + #
Responds with the unit ID number of that particular unit.
01 + #
Sets the unit ID to 1.
02 + #
Sets the unit ID to 2.
03 + #
Sets the unit ID to 3.
04 + #
Sets the unit ID to 4.
The system indicates the update was successful and the front panel lights stop flashing after a
few seconds. When the front panel Data light is on solid, the units are ready for network use.

How unit IDs affect system extension numbers

After successfully changing each unit ID to a unique number, it can be identified by the
network. More importantly, each local extension, remote extension, and voice mailbox has a
unique number. Note that dialing 101–108 will ring local extensions 111–118.
