Connect VVX Expansion Modules
VVX Expansion Modules are powered and signaled by VVX phones and require minimal setup. After you
connect an expansion module to a VVX phone, the module is automatically configured to work with the
phone. Note that you cannot connect paper display and color display expansion modules together on the
same phone.
To connect the VVX Expansion Module to your phone:
» Connect an auxiliary cable from the AUX port on the phone to the AUX 1 port on the expansion
module.
The LED lights on the module’s line keys flash red and green as the module starts up. The VVX Color
Expansion Modules takes approximately 20 seconds to power up, and the VVX Expansion Modules
with a paper display take approximately three seconds to power up.
Connect Additional Expansion Modules
After the first module is on, you can connect up to two additional modules to your VVX phone.
To connect multiple VVX Expansion Modules:
1 Connect an auxiliary cable from the AUX 2 port on the first module connected to the phone to the
AUX 1 port on the second module.
2 Connect an auxiliary cable from the AUX 2 port on the second module to the AUX 1 port on the third
module.
The LED lights on the line keys light up for each connected module as the expansion modules start
up.
