The Linx will detect the Telo Base Station or Phone Genie and automatically pair. The system
status indicator on the Linx will turn blue when the registration process is complete. If you see
the system status indicator alternate between blue and orange, the Linx is downloading a
software update. Do not unplug the Linx when it is updating its software.
After the system status indicator has turned solid blue, you can now unplug the Linx device and
move it anywhere in your home. Plug a telephone, fax machine or other telephony device into
the phone jack on the bottom of the Linx and pick up the telephone. If you hear the musical
Ooma dial tone, your setup is complete.
