1. Disconnect patch cable from
telephone module
2. Connect patch cable to
Ethernet Hub
Detailed Instructions
1. Read the section “Security System Warning” on page 8.
2. Open the Hills Home Hub and check you have the required modules for patching.
3. Locate the existing socket and
patch cable already connected on the HDM-808
Data/Patch Panel ( ) corresponding to the wall plate socket you want to
change
. Labels on the module and wall plate (or a floor plan) will help. Otherwise
read the next section for “Additional Help”.
4. Unplug the
opposite end
of the patch cable from the existing telephone or data
module (i.e. Telephone Module or Ethernet Hub ).
5.
Plug it firmly
into the module with the desired service (i.e. sockets on the bottom of
Telephone Module labelled or Ethernet Hub sockets labelled ). In this example
we are changing from a phone socket into a data socket, so we unplug one end of
the patch cable from the Telephone Module and plug it into a free socket on a
Ethernet Hub .
6. Test that your new socket works.
7. Remember to relabel your wall plate and modules.
