! Single Line Phones
If you have a single line phone it is probably
connected to a small modular jack. Simply unplug
the phone and plug the system in. If you wish to
have both the phone and the system connected at the
same time you can plug the phone into the PHONE
jack on the back of the BA-1000.
! Order A Phone Jack
If you need to order a jack from the telephone
company, you will need the following information:
FCC No: AP494N-64812-MA-E
RINGER EQ.:0.0B
USOC No (Jack type) RJ-11, RJ-12, or RJ-13
(See telephone connection)
! Setup
1) Connect the cord from the POWER CUBE to
the BA-1000.
2) Plug the POWER CUBE to a power outlet. The
BA-1000 will turn on automatically.
CAUTION: Do NOT disconnect the POWER
CUBE from the BA-1000 while it is

the BA-1000 and the other end to your RJ-11
telephone jack.
