Problem

Possible Cause & Solutions

Phone won’t show 

as Registered:

• Verify the SIP extension settings entered into the Phone match the SIP Server.

• Double check the authentication password (verify the password meets complexity 

  requirements).

• Verify the IP address isn’t being blacklisted or blocked by network.

• Verify nothing else on the network shares same IP address as the Phone.

• Verify that you can see the SIP Server and the Phone on the PC when it’s connected to  

  the network.

Phone won’t call out, 

it just sits with dial 

tone:

• Follow the steps in Phone Programming to verify the dial out number programmed 

  into the phone. 

• Verify the phone is in Standard Mode by pressing 

ENTER, 1, 9, ENTER, 1,

 then press 

  and hold 

STOP

 for 3 seconds.

• Verify the number being programmed into the phone is a valid, routable number. 

Phone audio is 

distorted or very low:

• Adjust VR1 and VR2 potentiometers on the yellow circuit board.

• Verify nothing is blocking the speaker or microphone holes on the face plate.

• Verify network traffic isn’t slow.

Phone doesn’t 

respond when the 

call button pushed. 

No LED or audio:

• Verify that the line cord from the RJ11 jack on the yellow circuit board is connected to 

  the RJ11 jack on the VoIP board. 

• Check that the voltage switch on the POE adapter is set to 12v.

• The push button may be non-functional. Remove the black switch JST connector from 

  the yellow circuit board and short across the 2 pins on the board in the connector 

  using a flat metal screwdriver. 

• Verify that the phone is still connected and getting POE from the Network Switch. 

• Verify that the phone still shows as Registered (see step 10).

• Reset phone (see Resetting Phone section).

Phone dials out but 

goes busy:

• Log into the VoIP Phone and verify that it still shows registered under Line 1 (see step 10).

• Verify dialing string is programmed into the Phone (if an 8 or 9 is needed to dial out).

• Phone may need to dial an extension rather than a standard 11 digit number. 

Phone is dead. It will 

not call or program:

• Verify that the phone is still connected and getting POE from the Network Switch. 

• Verify that the voltage switch on the POE adapter is set to 12v.

• Check the LEDs on all components (POE adapter, IP board, yellow circuit board).

• Reset phone (see Resetting Phone section).

• Verify that the phone does not exceed the 320’ distance limitation from the Network Switch.

• POE Switch is unable to handle the power requirements. POE+ or POE++ is recommended.
