Customer Installation Instructions
If your network interface jack (where the telephone company lines come into your building or
office) has two lines on a single jack you should purchase a 267D adapter and a line cord
(D4BU) from your AT&T PhoneCenter store or from your authorized AT&T representative.
If you need longer line and telephone cords you should purchase them also.

							Step 1 Plan Your System
Draw a floor plan of your business, showing the location of the network interface jacks,
where your local telephone lines come into the building or office. Install your controller
close to these jacks. Be sure an AC outlet not controlled by a switch is available.
Show on the floor plan the location of each telephone in your system and the distances of
the wiring run from the controller to each telephone location.
Below is a sample floor plan to guide you in making your own floor plan.
NOTE: If you need to install SPIRIT Commmunications System telephones in another building,
but  not  more than  1000 feet  from the controller,  an in-range, out-of-building  (IROB) pro-
tection device is required. Contact your AT&T representative and order part number 31304.

NOTE: Be sure cords do not cross hallways. Do not run cords inside air plenums and ducts or
along hot pipes.
Step 2 Check Outlet Grounding
Your SPIRIT Communications System control unit has been protected against AC line
and central office line voltage surges caused by lightning strikes or other power
anomalies, provided the system is properly grounded.
Using a circuit tester, check (or have checked by a qualified technician) the outlet into
which your 
SPIRIT system control unit will be plugged.  If the circuit tester detects
any of these faults, have this corrected before installation of the control unit:
— open  ground— open neutral
— reversed polarity
— hot and ground reversed
— open  hot— hot on neutral with hot open
If necessary, have a qualified electrician repair the electrical outlet in the manner
specified by the applicable electrical codes to prevent service interruption and continue
warranty protection.  If you have two-wire outlets with no ground wire, a non-switched,
three-wire grounded outlet should be installed.

							Step 3 Mount Controller
pencil You will need the following to mount your controller on the wall:
 l eight screws
For drywall, tile, or masonry use size 6 to 8 x ¾ inch plastic anchors with size 6 x 1 inch
slotted screws. For wood, use size 6 x 1 inch slotted round head wood screws. These screws
are available at your local hardware store.
 l12-inch ruler
 lflathead screwdriver
 ldrill with the drill bit recommended for the type of screws
 l
Choose a location within five feet of the network interface jacks, where the local telephone
company lines enter the building, and within five feet of a grounded (three-prong) AC outlet
that is not controlled by a switch. The power supply unit will be plugged into this outlet and
the controller connected to the power supply unit. The controller and power supply unit must be
within six inches of each other with the power supply on the left side of the controller.
NOTE: Try to position the controller so that there is an additional two feet of free wall space to
the right to allow for future expansion.
Be sure that the controller is in a well-ventilated area with a temperature range of 40° F to
100° F, and free of excessive dust and moisture. The controller should be at least two feet
from the floor.
 n
A. Mount the Power Supply Unit
Mount the power supply unit on the far left side of the chosen location, making sure it is
within five feet of a grounded AC outlet not controlled by a switch.
Drill two holes 4¼ inches apart and install two mounting screws. Loosen the screws enough to
hang the power supply unit. Mark the location of the two holes on the bottom of the unit and
remove the unit from the wall. Drill two more holes. Reinstall the power supply unit onto the
wall. Insert the two bottom mounting screws, and firmly tighten all four screws.
3 
						

							 nB. Mount Controller on Wall
If you are installing the 2448 expansion unit when you first put in your SPIRIT system,
follow the instructions provided with the expansion unit instead of those in part B.
Be sure to mount the controller within six inches of where the power cable will connect to the
power supply unit. Make two level marks 11 inches apart. Drill holes at these marks and install
two of the eight mounting screws so that the screw heads are about 3/16 inches from the wall.
NOTE: If a ruler is unavailble, the panel (front cover) can be used as a guide. Remove the panel
from the controller (see panel removal instructions in part F on page 6). Along the top edge of
the panel there are four little ribs. The two ribs closest to each edge of the panel are 11 inches apart.
Temporarily hang the controller on the mounting screws, by placing the two keyholes on the
top back of the controller on the screws and pulling down gently. Make a mark at the center
of each slot on the bottom back of the controller. Remove the controller by lifting it up and away
from the mounting screws. Drill a hole at each of the two marks. Install two more mounting
screws so that the screw heads are about 3/16” from the wall.
Place the controller on all four mounting screws and pull down. Firmly tighten the bottom
mounting screws.
Write the date on the date installed label (DATE INST:) located on the label sheet and place it
on the left side of the controller.
NOTE: The controller and power supply may be installed on a table or desktop without mounting.
Take special care to reduce the possibility of the equipment  moving or falling.
 nC. Install Line and Station Cards
If you purchased additional line and/or station cards, install them in the controller following
the instructions provided with the cards.
4 
						

							 nD. Test the Incoming Telephone Lines
Plug a standard telephone with a modular cord into each jack of the network interface.
Lift the receiver. If you do not hear a dial tone, these jacks do not work and you will require
service from your local telephone company.
When the telephone lines were installed, the phone number of each should have been marked
on each network interface jack. If that was not done, attach a label to each jack and write the
phone number on it. You may require help from your local telephone company to decide which
jack is for which number.
Some network interface jacks carry one line only, while some carry two. If your jacks are one-
line jacks (RJ11-type), you may connect the jack directly to the controller. If your jacks carry two
lines (RJ14-type), purchase a 267D 2-line adapter and a D4BU cord.
 n
E. Test the Controller
Plug the controller power cable into the matching connector on the bottom of the power
supply unit. Plug the power supply unit AC power cord into the AC outlet.
Turn on the power switch located on the bottom left of the power supply unit. A green LED
will light. If the LED does not light, make sure that the power supply unit is plugged into
a working AC outlet not controlled by a switch. If it still does not light, call your AT&T Hotline
Number or your authorized dealer.
Remove the panel from the controller by first loosening the screw located at the bottom center
of the controller. Lift the panel up and away from the controller; the screw will still be in
the panel. Remove and discard the packing material on the inside of the panel.
The Controller Self Test procedure may help you confirm that the controller, the expansion unit
(if part of the system), and the installed cards are working properly.
Plug a 
SPIRIT 24-button telephone directly into station jack 10.
 lPress INTERCOM.
 lLift the receiver.  You must use the receiver.
 lDial i 9 2448.
You should hear a confirmation tone. If you hear an error tone, hang up and start over (at
Press INTERCOM), having made sure that a 24-button telephone is plugged directly into
station jack 10. After hearing a confirmation tone, PLACE THE RECEIVER AWAY FROM
YOUR EAR.
 lDial 9 # i #.
If you hear either a busy or an error tone, hang up and start over (at Press INTERCOM), having
made sure that no one is using a telephone and that any 48-Button Attendant Adjuncts
are unplugged.
After about 20 seconds, testing will be complete and the results will be shown on a block of 15
indicator lights on the telephone (see the figure on page 24).
If the indicator light is on, that portion of the test has passed.
If the indicator light is off, that portion of the test has failed.
If the indicator light is blinking, that slot on the controller should be empty, and if it is not
empty, the test has failed.
 lHang Up.
Turn off the power on the power supply unit. The power indicator light will go off.
If you need help, consult the troubleshooting section starting on page 19.
