"Flash to connect" prompt on line 2. If you still want
to go offhook despite this voltage reading, press the
Ranger's Flash key and the Ranger will go off hook and
attempt to operate normally. (Because its voice circuits
are line powered, they won't work if there's insufficient
power on the line.) If there is not sufficient current
for the test set to operate properly, it will go back on
hook, to the "Flash to connect" prompt. If the Ranger
is connected to a line with greater than 10 volts, it will
automatically go off-hook.

When the Traffixguard Low feature is selected as OFF
in the setup menu:
The Ranger does not test for low voltage before it
goes off-hook.
™
When the Traffixguard High feature is selected as ON
in the setup menu:
The Ranger checks for line voltage exceeding 65 volts.
If it finds the line voltage exceeds this level, it doesn't go
off-hook but displays the messages: "x V,TOO HIGH!"
and "DISCONNECT NOW!!" It continues to check the
line voltage for about a minute, then goes to sleep if the
high voltage has not been removed. The Ranger will go
off-hook if the voltage goes below the 65 volt threshold.

™
When the Traffixguard High feature is selected as OFF
in the setup menu:
The Ranger does not check for line voltage exceeding
65 volts. In either case, the test set automatically monitors
the line current and goes on-hook if the current exceeds
125mA. The Ranger momentarily goes off-hook to
sample the line current and display the new reading
every few seconds.
In its normal off-hook display, the Ranger shows dialing
information on the top line and status information on
the bottom line. The status information consists of the
dialing type ("Tone" or "Pulse"), the measured line
current in milliamperes, and the line polarity ("NRM"
[normal] or "REV" [reversed]).

4.1.2 The BELL Setting (BELL Mode)

The BELL position (BELL mode) is the "off state" of the
Ranger. The phone keypad is disabled and the Ranger is
in its lowest power state. The test set monitors the phone
line to which it is connected for ringing and Caller ID
signals. If it detects an incoming ring, it sounds the
electronic ringer. If the Ranger detects incoming Caller
ID information, it will test the signal for correct format
and checksum and display valid information and PASS
