Schematic #1 Schematic #2 ************** **************** * * * ------- * * --Once you have hooked up all the parts, you must figure out what set of wires go to the line and which go to the fone. This is because of the fact that LED's must be put in, in a certain direction. Depending on which way you put the LED is what controls what wires are for the line & fone.--- * * ! ! * * ! ! * * ! * * RESISTOR ! * * ! ! ! * * ! ! * * ! ! / * * -------- ! * * ! ! \ * * ! ! * * ! ! / * * --SWITCH-- * * ! ! \ * * ! ! * * ! ! / * L * ! ! * F L * ! ! ! * F I>RED- -RED>O I>RED- ---RED>O N>-----GREEN---->N N>-----GREEN------>N E * h * E E * * E ************** ****************
In order to find out, hook up the box in one direction using one set of wires for line and the other for phone.
*NOTE* For Model I switch should be OFF. *NOTE* For Model ][ switch should be set to side connecting the LED.Once you have hooked it up, then pick up the fone and see if the LED is on. If it is, the LED will be lit. If is doesn't light then switch the wires and try again. Once you know which are which then label them. *NOTE* - If neither directions worked then your switch was in the wrong position. Now lable the switch in its current position as BOX ON.
