Cabling Your MultiVOIP
Cabling your MultiVOIP involves making the proper Power,
Command Port, phone system, and Internet connections.
Figure 5 shows the back panel connectors and the associated
cable connections. The following paragraph details the steps
necessary for cabling your MultiVOIP.
Note: Before starting to cable your MultiVOIP, perform the
E&M Jumper Block Positioning Procedure if either voice/
fax channel (1 or 2) will be connected to an E&M trunk that
is a Type 1,3,4, or 5 rather than a Type 2 (the default).
Cabling Procedure
1 Connect the power supply to a live AC outlet, then
connect it to the MultiVOIP as shown in Figure 5. The
power connector is a 7-pin circular DIN connector.

							MultiVOIP Quick Start Guide
123 Connect a network cable to the Ethernet 10Base-T
connector on the back of the MultiVOIP. Connect the other
end of the cable to your network.
4 If you are connecting a station device (e.g., analog
telephone, fax machine, or Key Telephone System (KTS)
to your MultiVOIP, connect the smaller end of a special
adapter cable (supplied) to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXS
connector on the back of the MultiVOIP and the other end
to the station device.
If you are connecting a PBX extension to your MultiVOIP,
connect the smaller end of a special adapter cable
(supplied) to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXO connector on
the back of the MultiVOIP and the other end to the PBX
extension.
If you are connecting an E&M trunk from a telephone
switch to your MultiVOIP, connect one end of an RJ-45
phone cord to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 E&M connector
on the back of the MultiVOIP and the other end to the
trunk.
If you are connecting to an E&M trunk, you need to ensure
that the E&M trunk jumper is in the correct position for the
E&M type trunk. The default E&M jumper position is E&M
type 2. To change the E&M jumper position, perform the
E&M jumper block positioning procedure.
5 Repeat the above step to connect the remaining telephone
equipment to each Voice/Fax Channel on your MultiVOIP.
6 Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by setting the power
switch on the back panel to the 1 (up, On) position. Wait
for the Boot LED on the MultiVOIP to go Off before
proceeding. This may take a couple of minutes.
Proceed to the Software Loading section to load the MultiVOIP
software. 
						

							13 Software Installation
E&M Jumper Block Positioning Procedure
Each voice/fax channel on the MultiVOIP has a separate E&M
jumper block, located near the jacks on the back panel of the
MultiVOIP. Each jumper block has 8 pairs of pins with a jumper
plug on three adjacent pairs of pins. The jumper plug must be
centered on the E&M type number (see Figure 6)  that
matches the E&M connection for that channel.   Perform the
following procedure if you need to move the E&M jumper block
from its default (Type 2) position.
1 Ensure that the external power supply is disconnected
from the MultiVOIP.
2 Turn the MultiVOIP upside down and remove the cabinet
mounting screw at the center back of the cabinet.
3 Turn the MultiVOIP right side up, then slide the base out
the rear of the cabinet.
Note: To change a jumper position, lift the jumper plug up
off the jumper block, then move it to the new position,
ensuring that the 
middle  jumper of the jumper block is
centered on the E&M type number (1,3; 4; or 5) as shown
on Figure 6.

Phase 1: Configuring Your Master MultiVOIP
Configuring your Master MultiVOIP involves software loading
and configuration.
Software Loading
The software loading procedure does not provide every screen
or option in the loading process. It is assumed that a technical
person with a thorough knowledge of Windows and the
software loading process is performing the installation.
Additional information on the MultiVOIP software is provided in
the User Guide supplied with your MultiVOIP.
If you are installing a MultiVOIP behind a firewall, you need to
add the following UDP ports to your firewall.
Q.931 Signaling, Ch1 [900] Q.931 Signaling, Ch2 [902]
Status [5000]
Ch1 RTP [5004] Ch1 RTCP [5005]
Ch2 RTP [5006] Ch2 RTCP [5007]
Refer to your firewall user documentation to enter and open
these ports.
1 Run Windows on the PC connected to the MultiVOIP.

							19 Configure Master MultiVOIP
13 The Interface group defaults to FXS (Loop Start).  Select
the interface option that corresponds to the interface type
being connected to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 jack on the
back panel of the MultiVOIP.
If you are connected to a station device; e.g., an analog
telephone, fax machine, or KTS telephone system to the
Voice/Fax connector on the back of the unit, FXS (Loop
Start) will likely be the correct Interface option.
If the station device uses ground start, then choose the
FXS (Ground Start) option. Refer to the device’s user
documentation.
If you are using an analog extension from your PBX, then
choose the FXO option.  Check with your in-house phone
personnel to verify the connection type.
If you are connecting to an analog trunk on your PBX, then
choose the E&M option.
If you choose the FXO interface, the Dialing Options
Regeneration group is enabled.  Check with your local in-
house phone personnel to verify whether your local PBX
dial signaling is Pulse or tone (DTMF). Then, set the
Regeneration option accordingly.
For FXO-to-FXO communications, you can enable a
specific type of FXO Disconnect -- either current loss,
tone detection, or silence detection. (Check with your
in-house phone personnel to verify the preferred type of
disconnect to use.) For tone detection, you can select
from drop-down lists either one or two tones that will cause
the line to be disconnected; the person hanging up a call
must then hit the key(s) that will produce those tones. For
silence detection, select One Way or Two Way, then set
the timer for the number of seconds of silence before
disconnect. Note: the default value of 15 seconds may be
shorter than desired for your application. 
						

							MultiVOIP Quick Start Guide
20If you choose the E&M interface, then the E&M Options
group is enabled.  Check with your local in-house phone
personnel to determine if the signaling is Dial Tone or
Wink and if the connection is 2-wire or 4-wire.  If Wink
signaling is used, then the Wink Timer is enabled with a
default of 250 milliseconds.  The range of the Wink Timer
is from 100 to 350 milliseconds. Consult with your local in-
house phone personnel for this timer setting.
If you want to dedicate a local voice/fax channel to a
remote voice/fax channel (so you will not have to dial the
remote channel), click the Auto Call Enable option in the
Auto Call group. Then enter the appropriate phone
number in the Phone Number field.
Note: After configuring a given channel (1 or 2), you can
copy that channel’s configuration to the other channel by
clicking the Copy button. Everything on the Interface tab
will be copied to the other channel.
14 Repeat the above step to configure the interface type for
voice/fax channel 2.
15 The Voice/Fax tab displays the parameters for the voice
coder, faxing, DTMF gain, billing charges for inbound and/
or outbound calls, password authentication on inbound
and/or outbound calls, and auto disconnect which limits
call duration.
16 To change the voice coder, first select the channel by
clicking the Select Channel down arrow and highlighting
the channel number, then click the Voice Coder down
arrow and highlight your new voice coder entry.
