Note
Some laptops and personal computers do not have DB-9 serial port connectors and may require
a USB–to–serial port adapter.
Step 3
To communicate with the voice gateway, begin a terminal emulator application.
Connecting an FXS line
Use a standard straight-through RJ-11 modular telephone cable to connect a Foreign Exchange Service
(FXS) port to a telephone or fax machine.
Warning
This equipment contains a ring signal generator (ringer), which is a source of hazardous voltage. Do
not touch the RJ-11 (phone) port wires (conductors), the conductors of a cable connected to the RJ-11
port, or the associated circuit-board when the ringer is active. The ringer is activated by an incoming
call.
