Telephone Cable Connection

To use the phone as standard telephone:

1.  Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the PHONE jack on the back of the base 

and the other end into a modular jack

IMPORTANT: Do not connect the telephone line until the handset is fully 

charged. The base must be plugged into the AC power at all times.

Installation Note:

 

Your InfoLink is designed for home use and will work with most any 

standard Internet system (non-commercial, non-corporate environments/

applications). This includes wired and/or wireless routers which provide 

additional “hard” Firewall security functionality (HTTP Internet traffic 

transmits inbound and outbound via Port 80, which is typically open on 

most firewall set ups). However, this unit may not function properly behind 

a firewall that does not allow http traffic inbound and outbound on Port 

80. 

The unit will not work with a dial-up internet connection.

Power Supply Connection

1.  Connect the power adaptor provided with your unit to the base . 
2.  Connect the adaptor to an electrical wall outlet. 
3.  When power is applied to the base, the unit goes through a one minute initialization 

process in the following sequence:

 

a) the blue DECT indicator is on (solid), 

 

b) the green POWER indicator flashes,

 

c) both the blue DECT and green POWER  

indicators flash; and

 

d) the green POWER and blue ETHERNET  

indicators are on (solid).

The unit has now completed the process. The phone will not function until this process is 

complete.

Handset Synchronization*

1.  After base is powered up, wait 5-7 seconds until

 

  RSS synchronization icon briefly appears on the handset display. This indicates that the 

handset and base are synchronized to each other. 

2.  Next you will see the 

RSS Service Wizard

 which will guide you step through setup of 

Weather and Weather Alerts. There are some useful channels pre-configured to help 

get you started OR you can bypass the Wizard at this time and return later. 

3.  Programmed content windows will start auto scrolling and handset is ready for use.
