Comdial G0408 - Connecting a Power Failure Station

2.7 Connecting A Power Failure Station
The system provides a tip and ring pair connected to line 1 as an emergency power failure
circuit. This circuit is active during a commercial AC power failure if an external battery
assembly is not installed to provide battery back-up power to the system. Connect an industry
standard, single-line telephone, such as a model 2500, to a power failure pair and use it to
provide communications capability until the AC power to the system is restored.
NOTE: The system also provides one power failure connection with each add-on expansion
module.
