INSTALLATION MANUAL
If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your
service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But, if advance notice isn't practical, you will be noti-
fied as soon as possible. You will be notified of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Connection to party line
service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or corpora-
tion commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this
[equipment ID] does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equip-
ment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer. Your telephone company may make changes in its
facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If they
do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service. If you
experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact ELAN TECHNICAL SUPPORT at 1-800-622-3526
for information on obtaining service or repairs. The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment
from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure the equipment is not malfunctioning.
If the telephone features are not functioning or are malfunctioning, switch off the C2 Communications Controller
(located on the rear panel). This will directly connect the telephone line with all the telephones connected to the
package. Contact your dealer for repairs.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection of party lines is
subject to state tariffs. (Contact your state public utility commission for information).
DISCLAIMER:
The ELAN C2 Communications Controller is an advanced design capable of interfacing with most telecommunica-
tion devices and central office switches. It has been thoroughly tested and should work satisfactorily with most tele-
phone equipment. However, ELAN in no way represents, guarantees, or claims that the ELAN C2 Communications
Controller will achieve 100% functionality with every manufacturer's telephone equipment or with every central
office feature.
ELAN Home Systems strongly recommends the use of a quality in-line Telephone Surge Suppressor such as the
Z•POWER Power Controller or TH31SRG surge Protection Hub. This device should be installed between the incom-
ing telephone service line and the C2's TELCO IN jack. If your installer has not installed such a device, please insist
that they do so. For additional protection on large wiring networks, surge suppression can also be added in series
with the C2's PHONE OUT jack, protecting your house network and C2 from surge in both directions.Although the
installation of telephone line surge suppression is an important precautionary measure to take in protecting your
C2 from surge-related damage, it does not completely eliminate the possibility of surges entering into the system
through the telco line due to near or direct lightning strikes. ELAN Home Systems does not warranty this, or any
product against surge-related damage; nor does this warning imply that, if surge protection is installed and the unit
is subsequently damaged by surge, ELAN Home Systems would repair or replace the unit under warranty. Please
consult the warranty policy of the surge protection device you are installing for information on product repair/
replacement in the event of surge-related damage.
