Installing the e-speed Modem

 
Place the e-speed modem on a flat surface with clearance for the rear connectors.

Procedure

    1. If a telephone is installed, unplug the telephone from the RJ11 wall jack.
     
    2. Use the supplied RJ11 6-pin interface cable for the LINE connection. Insert one end of the cable into the jack labeled LINE. Insert the other end of the RJ11 interface cable into the RJ11 wall jack.


    3. Connect a telephone (optional); go to Step 4 if you are not connecting a telephone to the e-speed modem.

    Using the cable supplied with the POTS filter, plug one end into the MVL modem jack labeled PHONE. Plug the other end into the POTS filter hack labeled LINE.

    Using the existing telephone interface cable that was unplugged in Step 1, plug into the POTS filter jack labeled PHONE.

    4. Use an 8-pin cable for the Ethernet connection. Insert one end of the cable into the jack labeled ETHERNET.

  • Use a straight-through cable and connect the other end to an Ethernet hub, or

  • Use an Ethernet crossover cable and connect the other end to the Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) in the PC.

    5. Insert the power cord's round end into the jack labeled POWER. Plug the transformer into an AC outlet. The following illustration shows examples of two power supply models.

    The MVL modem hardware installation is now complete. When the power cord is installed, the MVL modem goes through a power-on self-test.

Power-on the e-speed modem

When power is applied, the e-speed modem performs self-diagnostics and the PWR LED is on. The self-diagnostics includes a power-on self-test. During the power-on self-test, all of the LEDs turn on for one second.


 

Status LEDs

All of the LEDs turn on and off during the power-on self-test. After a successful self-test, the LEDs shold appear as indicated in BOLD in the Condition column below.
