CALLER ID SYSTEM 310 (430-0964) Preparation Faxback Doc. # 33780 INSTALLING BATTERIES The module requires four AAA batteries for power. For the longest operation, we recommend you use alkaline batteries (such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-555). CAUTION: You must install fresh batteries immediately after removing the old ones, or you might lose the information stored in the module. Follow these steps to install the batteries. 1. If the phone is already connected, unplug it from the module. 2. Use a flathead screwdriver to remove the screw from the battery compartment door, then slide off the cover. 3. Before the display dims, place fresh batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside the compartment. CAUTION: Do not force the batteries into the compartment. 4. Replace the battery compartment cover and secure it with the screw. NOTE: The module automatically tests the batteries each time it receives a new call. When 1+ appears on the display or the display dims, replace the batteries. CAUTION: Always remove old or weak batteries. They can leak chemicals that can damage electronic circuits. RESETTING THE DISPLAY Before you use the module the first time or if the display locks UP, use a pointed object such as a straightened paper clip to press RESET on the module's upper end. PLACING THE MODULE ON A DESK, SHELF, OR TABLE You can place the module directly on a desk, shelf, or table. MOUNTING ON A WALL To mount the module directly on a wall, you need two screws (not supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on the back of the supplied mounting bracket. 1. Snap the mounting bracket onto the module. 2. Drill two 1/8-inch diameter holes, 1 3/8 inches apart, into the wall. 3. Thread a mounting screw into each hole, letting the head extend 1/8 inch from the wall. 4. Align the keyhole slots on the back of the mounting bracket with the mounting screws and slide the module downward to secure it. CONNECTING TO THE PHONE LINE The module connects to a modular phone line jack and your telephone. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular phone line jack, you can update the wiring yourself using the necessary jacks and adapters, available at your local Radio Shack store. Or, you can have the telephone company update your telephone wiring for you NOTES: The telephone company charges to install the necessary jacks. The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C for a baseboard jack, or RJ11W for a wall jack. 1. Unplug the telephone line cord from your telephone and plug it into the module's TEL. LINE jack. 2. Plug one end of the supplied line cord into the module's PHONE jack. 3. Plug the other end of the line cord into the telephone. ADJUSTING THE DISPLAY CONTRAST 1. If the display is showing any call information, continuously press either REVIEW /\ or REVIEW \/ until XX CALLS appears on the display. 2. Press and hold either REVIEW /\ or REVIEW \/ until CONTRAST :XX appears on the display. 3. Quickly press and release REVIEW /\ or REVIEW \/ to increase or decrease the display's contrast. NOTES: The display goes blank when you set the contrast to 00 and gets completely dark when you set it to 15. If you increase the contrast higher than CONTRAST: 15, the display returns to CONTRAST: 00. If you decrease the contrast lower than CONTRAST: 00, the display returns to CONTRAST: 15. 4. When you finish adjusting the display contrast, press DELETE. (BR/EB 7/2/96)
