Lucent Technologies Spirit 2448, 1224 Controller Communications System Customer Installation Instrctions Manual

							 nF. Connect Telephone Lines to Controller
Remove one line cord for each incoming telephone line from the controller box. Additional
cords and longer cords up to 25’ long may be purchased at your phone store or from your
AT&T representative. LABEL EACH END OF EACH CORD WITH A LINE CORD LABEL.
Pull a line cord through the opening in the bottom rear of the controller and then hook it into
the opening in the bottom front. Plug the line cord into a modular jack on the line card of the
controller. The line jacks are numbered on the plastic frame to the left. Then plug the line
cord into the network interface jack for that number. The System Directory label is located on
the back of the panel (front cover). Fill in the telephone number of that network interface
jack. Repeat the procedure for each line.
When all the line cords are installed, remove any slack from the cords in the controller by gently
pulling down on the cords at the bottom rear of the controller. Secure the line cords to the wall
or baseboard, being careful not to pierce the cords.
NOTE: If the distance between the controller and the network interface jack is greater than 7 feet,
purchase D4CE extension cords or new (14’ and 25’ lengths) line cords.
NOTE: Business (4-pair) wiring (see part 4A on page 8) can also be used to connect telephone lines
to the controller.  You will want to use Z610A adapters, one for every four lines, along with  jack
panel boxes (one box holds 2  Z610A adapters). Use jumper wire to connect the network interface
to Z610A adapters and the line cord supplied to connect the adapter to the controller line jack.

							Step 4 Wiring Runs
You may choose to wire your SPIRIT Communications System using either 4-pair business
wiring materials or 2-pair customer convenience wiring materials.
Each run from the controller to a telephone location should be numbered and labeled.
Materials for labeling the wiring are included with the controller.  Do not skip this important step.
If you choose to wire your system with customer convenience wiring, use the labels provided
to label 
EACH END of EVERY wiring run. Proceed to page 13.
If you choose to use the 4-pair business wiring materials, the labeling should look like the
following:
Note to installers: The SPIRlT system requires a reversal in the station set wiring. This reversal is in the
telephone (tinsel) cord that is packed with the telephone, so all other station set wiring should be straight.

							 n Mount Jack Panel Boxes
Mount the jack panel boxes near the controller, creating a jack field. You will need one
jack panel box for every six telephones in your system. If possible, the jack field should be
two to six inches below the controller if the controller is wall-mounted.
Mounting screws for the jack panel boxes are included in the wiring installation kit. If you are
installing the boxes on a sturdy supporting structure, such as studs or cross members, attach
the boxes directly to the walls.  If the walls are hollow, mount the jack panel boxes on a
board that is about two inches larger all around than the complete jack field (all the boxes
mounted together). Then, mount the board on the wall.
Mount the jack
panel box with
the screws provided
or fasteners
appropriate for
your walls.

Run Cable to all Telephone Locations
Select a cable extension kit with the right length of cable (100 or 200 feet) for one cable
run.  For runs over 200 feet, run a 200-foot cable, terminate it in a modular connecting
block, plug in another cable, and repeat, up to a maximum of 1000 feet.
Select a Cable Extension Kit with the right length of cable
(100 or 200 feet) for one cable run. For runs over 200 feet,
you will have to run a 200 foot cable, terminate it in a
modular connecting block, and plug in another cable. The maximim
length of any cable run is 1000 feet.

Step 4B Wiring Run, Using Customer Convenience Wiring
Customer convenience wiring materials are available at your local phone store. Different
situations require different materials. For instance, if a telephone location is less than 25 feet
from the controller, you may choose to buy a 25’ D4BU line cord and plug one end in the
modular connecting block of the telephone and the other end in the corresponding modular
connecting block in the controller. Use telephone wire clips to secure the cord to the baseboard
and your telephone is installed.
If distances are greater than 25 feet you will want to install a wiring run (see page 14).  Below is
a list of materials needed for installing a wiring run using customer convenience wiring.
List of Materials
wire junction 742B–one for each length of wire used in the run.
telephone wire–packages of 50-foot length are available from your phone store.
modular connecting block 725A or 625A–one for every desk telephone
modular wall connecting block 630B–one for every telephone to be mounted on the wall.
telephone wire stripper 953A
telephone wire clips
Install Modular Plugs (700A4) and Wire Junction Boxes (742B)
Install a modular plug at the controller end of an appropriate length of telephone wire for
each telephone in the system.
If the distance between the controller and a telephone location requires more than one wire
length, install a wire junction (742B) between the two wires. This can be repeated up to a
maximum of 1000 feet.
Secure  Telephone Wire
Secure  telephone wire along baseboard with clips. Be careful that you do not damage the wire.
Install Modular Connecting Blocks
Install a modular connecting block  (725A or 625A) within 14 feet of every telephone that will
be desk mounted. Install a modular connecting block for wall telephones (630B) where every
wall-mounted telephone set will be located. Follow the instructions that come with the

 nDesk Mount
All telephone sets are delivered assembled for desktop use; you need only attach the handset.
To install the telephone cord on a desktop set, plug one end of the cord into the jack on
the bottom of the telephone. Run the cord through the slot on the bottom of the base so that
the cord is retained by the tabs. Plug the other end of the cord into the modular connecting
block for that location. Plug the handset cord into the handset.
Wall Mount
To mount a SPIRIT telephone set on the wall, remove the set base by pushing in on the center
at the top of the base and pulling the base away from the telephone. Install the base on a
630B Wall Telephone Modular connecting block. Plug one end of the telephone cord into the wall
jack. Wrap surplus cord around the tabs on the base (see picture on left). Plug the other end
of the telephone cord into the jack on the back of the telephone set. Insert the top tab of the base
into the slot at the top of the set. With one hand, push up on the center of the bottom of the base.
Swing the set into position and lock in place.
Slide out the plastic hook (see picture on right) located just above the speaker grill and turn
around so the curved section sticks up into the earpiece cradle and holds the receiver in place.
