5.  If you intend to configure the MultiVOIP remotely using the MultiVOIP Windows interface, connect an  

RJ-11 phone cable between the Command Modem connector (not available on the –SS or –FX series) 
and a receptacle served by a telco POTS line.  See Figure 2-6 below.   

6.  The Command Modem is built into the MVP410 and 810 units only.  To configure the MultiVOIP remotely 

using its Windows interface, you must call into the MultiVOIP’s Command Modem.  Once a connection is 
made, the configuration process is identical to local configuration with the Windows interface.

7.  Ensure that the unit is properly connected to earth ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when 

mounted within a rack.  

8.  This can be accomplished by connecting a grounding wire between the chassis grounding screw (see 

Figure 2-6) and a metallic object that will provide an electrical ground. 

9.  Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by placing the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON position. Wait 

for the Boot LED on the MultiVOIP to go off before proceeding. This may take a few minutes. 

10.  Proceed to Chapter 3 to load the MultiVOIP software. 

 
For DID channels only 
For any channel on which you are using the DID interface type, you must change the jumper on the MultiVOIP 
circuit card. DID is not supported on the –SS or –FX models. 

1.  Disconnect power.  Unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet or from the receptacle on the 

MultiVOIP unit. 

2.  Using a #1 Phillips driver, remove the three screws (at back of unit) that attach the main circuit card to the 

chassis of the MultiVOIP. 

 

3.  Pull the main circuit card out about 5 inches (the power connection to the board prevents it from being 

removed entirely from the chassis). 

4.  Identify the channels on which the DID interface will be used.
