ASTU and the CIX100
The ASTU works with the CIX100 Base system with R1.3 and higher software. It provides two
standard telephone ports and connects to a unique slot on the side of the CIX100. It does not
occupy one of the universal slots.
ASTU Wiring
1. 300 ohms loop resistance max., including the telephone or other devices DC off-hook
resistance.
2. ASTU requires secondary protectors with standard voltage for outside wiring
ASTU Installation
1. Turn the power to the CIX100 off (press the DC power switch) and unplug the system.
2. Remove the front and left-side covers from the CIX100.
3. Make sure the SW2 switch is in the “Mu law” position for the U.S. and Canada.
4. Align the holes on the ASTU with the white plastic posts on the left side of the CIX100 Base
Cabinet. Firmly press the ASTU onto the posts to attach it to the CIX100. Make sure that you
can still reach all attached cables and wires.
5. Slip the spade of the FG1 (green wire) under the grounding screw on the CIX100 and tighten
the screw.
6. From the CIX100, locate the multi-colored five wire cable (white connector) and plug it into the
P1 connector on the ASTU.
7. On the ASTU, locate the 10-wire P2 connector cable and plug it into the front of the ACTU
processor PCB on the CIX100. Press firmly so that both black flip-locks snap
shut. (To remove, flip up the front and back locks.)
8. Connect the standard telephone(s) or devices to J1 and J2 on the ASTU.
9. Plug in the CIX100 power and turn on the DC power switch in the front of the CIX100. If
everything seems to be working, re-attach the outside covers.
10. Power down and power up the CIX100 and the system will automatically recognize the ASTU
in virtual slot 09. Otherwise, you can use eManager to assign the ASTU in the 0109 position.
