Unpacking Your MultiVOIP
When unpacking your MultiVOIP, check to see that all of the items
shown are included in the box.  For the various MultiVOIP models, the
contents of the box will be different.  Study the particular illustration
below that is appropriate to the model you have purchased.  If any box
contents are missing, contact MultiTech Tech Support at 1-800-972-2439.

Rack Mounting Instructions for
MVP2410/3010 & MVP410/810
The MultiVOIPs can be mounted in an industry-standard EIA 19-inch
rack enclosure, as shown in Figure 2-5.

Safety Recommendations for Rack Installations
Ensure proper installation of the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure
by following the recommended installation as defined by the enclosure
manufacturer. Do not place the unit directly on top of other equipment
or place other equipment directly on top of the unit.  If installing the
unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow within
the rack so that the maximum recommended ambient temperature is
not exceeded.  Ensure that the unit is properly connected to earth
ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when mounted within
a rack. If a power strip is used, ensure that the power strip provides
adequate grounding of the attached apparatus.  
When mounting the equipment in the rack, make sure mechanical
loading is even to avoid a hazardous condition, such as loading heavy
equipment in rack unevenly.  The rack used should safely support the
combined weight of all the equipment it supports.
Ensure that the mains supply circuit is capable of handling the load of
the equipment.  See the power label on the equipment for load
requirements (full specifications for MultiVOIP models are presented in
chapter 1 of this manual).
Maximum ambient temperature for the unit is 40 degrees Celsius (104
degrees Fahrenheit).  This equipment should only be installed by
properly qualified service personnel. Only connect like circuits. In other
words, connect SELV (Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to SELV
circuits and TN (Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.

19-Inch Rack Enclosure Mounting Procedure
Attaching the MultiVOIP to a rack-rail of an EIA 19-inch rack enclosure
will certainly require two persons.  Essentially, the technicians must
attach the brackets to the MultiVOIP chassis with the screws provided,
as shown in Figure 3-6, and then secure unit to rack rails by the
brackets, as shown in Figure 3-7.  Because equipment racks vary, screw
for rack-rail mounting are not provided.  Follow the instructions of the
rack manufacturer and use screws that fit.
1. Position the right rack mounting bracket on the MultiVOIP
using the two vertical mounting screw holes.
2. Secure the bracket to the MultiVOIP using the two screws
provided.
3. Position the left rack mounting bracket on the MultiVOIP
using the two vertical mounting screw holes.
4. Secure the bracket to the MultiVOIP using the two screws
provided.
5. Remove feet (4) from the MultiVOIP unit.
6. Mount the MultiVOIP in the rack enclosure per the rack
manufacture’s mounting procedure.

Cabling
Cabling Procedure for MVP2410/3010
Cabling your MultiVOIP entails making the proper connections for
power, command port, phone system (T1/E1 line connected to PBX or
telco office), and Ethernet network.  Figure 3-8 shows the back panel
connectors and the associated cable connections.  The following
procedure details the steps necessary for cabling your MultiVOIP.
1. Connect the power cord to a live AC outlet, then connect it to the
MultiVOIP’s power receptacle shown at top right in Figure 3-8.

2. Connect the MultiVOIP to the PC (the computer that will hold the
MultiVOIP software) using the RJ-45 to DB9 (female) cable provided
with your unit.  Plug the RJ-45 end of the cable into the Command
port of the MultiVOIP and connect the other end (the DB9 connector)
to the PC serial port you are using (typically COM1 or COM2).  See
Figure 3-8.

3. Connect a network cable to the Ethernet connector on the back of the
MultiVOIP.  Connect the other end of the cable to your network.
4. Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by setting the power switch on the
right side panel to the ON position.  Wait for the Boot LED on the
MultiVOIP to go off before proceeding.  This may take a couple of
minutes.
Proceed to Chapter 4 “Software Installation.”
Cabling Procedure for MVP2400
Cabling your MultiVOIP entails making the proper connections for
