Before programming The Stick II, you will need to install it on your existing telephone lines. There are several ways to install The Stick II. Whether you have a KSU,
PBX, or just two-lines running into your home or business, we have tried to make this section as simple and painless as possible. With each installation we have listed the main benefits, an estimate on the difficulty level and recommendations for professional installation.
We have designed the ports on The Stick II to accommodate households and businesses that are wired for two telephone lines and use a RJ-14 wall jack. This means that both lines can be accessed from one wall jack through one RJ-14 line cord (see Example A). This would allow you to plug into the Line 1 /2 port on The Stick II.
If your household or business has two phone lines wired separately and must be accessed from individual RJ-11 wall jacks, you would simply use the two RJ-14 line cords supplied to you and connect Line 1 to Line 1 /2 and Line 2 to Line 2 on The Stick II (see Example B).
The voice ports located on the bottom of The Stick II are also configured for households and businesses that might have two-line telephones. The two-line phones would simply plug into the Voice 1/2 port. If there are separate single line phones, they can be plugged directly into the appropriate ports.
