Congratulations on purchasing the AD-30 Multi-Hold adapter. This unit was
designed for today’s demands and looking to the future. The default setup
for the AD-30 is the “
Tone Hold
” mode; this mode lets the unit work with
virtually any Analog phone set on the market.

Audio Source Considerations
The AD-30 works with any audio source that has a Headphone or high
power output. We suggest using a Digital MOH Repeater; there are several
available on the internet. You can also use a Boom Box so long as it has a
Headphone output; check it carefully as most units have an Aux In which
won’t work. The AD-30 has an RCA input and comes with an RCA to RCA
cable along with a 3.5mm adapter for use with a Boom Box.
Changing Operating Modes
The AD-30 is very versatile with 6 basic command modes. The default
mode of the AD-30 is the “
Tone Hold
” mode, with the default Tone being
the “
*
”. To change a mode, enter any of the following commands while on
one of the phone lines connected to the AD-30:
# # # # 1
– switches the unit to trigger off the
*
# # # # 2
– switches the unit to trigger off the
#
# # # # 5
– switches the unit to work in “
Tone Hang up
” mode
# # # # 6
– switches the unit to work in “
Tone Hold
” mode
# # # # 7
– switches the unit to work in “
RCA Hold
” mode
# # # # 8
– switches the unit to work in the “
Ton
e” modes
When you switch the unit to trigger off of the # then all the above command
codes change from
# # # #
to
* * * *.
Using the Tone modes
To use the “
Tone Hold
” mode you simple press the “
*
” on your phone to
activate the message then press “
Hold
” (or “
Mute
” if you don’t have a
“
Hold
” button) on your phone. To release the hold simple pick up the line
then press “
*
” again.
To use in the “
Tone Hang up
” mode you press the “
*
” on your phone then
hang up the phone as if dropping the call. The unit will hold the call until
you pick up the line again.
Using with RCA 2540x, 1x & 2x phones
This mode is called “
RCA Hold
” mode. In this mode you can combine any of
these phones into one system and simply use the “
Hold
” button on the
phones to activate the message, then the unit will release when you pick up
the line again.
NOTE: These phones “Beep” about every 8 seconds on hold
so the AD-30 will simply play your message along with the beeps; there is
NO way to get rid of the beeps.
