Wiring the Terminal Block

Prepare for wiring by following these guidelines:

Pull the wires and the phone cable through the opening in
the mounting plate (unless you are running them down
from the bottom of the mounting plate).

Prepare the wires by giving each:

• A clean cut

• A clean strip

• A tightly twisted end

Loosen the terminal block screws, pry the wire clamps
open with a paper clip, and insert the wires using needle-
nose pliers.

Tighten the screws firmly, but do not overtighten.

To wire the terminal block:

Insert the wires in the terminal block following the
sequence shown below.

Note

:

Terminal 1 is next to the phone cable jack.
