The first entry point for telephone into the house is a double RJ12 modular
socket. Standard wiring of blue and white to 4 and 5 on one socket, and
jumpered to 4 and 5 of the other socket.
I have installed an alarm with dialler, and it has a plug for connection to
a socket 611. As I understand, the purpose of this 611 socket being to
immediately disconnect all standard POTS connections/extensions giving the
alarm dialler sole access to the line. (ie. if the phone line is in use
because someone is chatting or dialup modem is connected, they are
immediately disconnected so the dialler can dial-out).
Thusly, I attempted to make one of the modular sockets at the initial entry
into a mode 3 socket for the alarm and the other modular socket the POTS
connector. Alarm modular socket got blue and white to 4 and 5, with the
POTS modular socket getting jumpered into 4 and 5 from 3 and 6 of the Alarm
modular socket. Plug a POTS telephone into the alarm socket and it works
fine, plug it into the POTS socket and it doesn't work (because the alarm
wasn't plugged into the alarm socket). So far, as expected.
Now the question (thanks for reading thus far), assuming that what I have
done so far is correct? ... What pin-outs/wiring arrangement do I use to
put a modular connector on the end of the alarm wire (instead of it's
socket 611 connector) so that when I plug it into the initial modular jack
(alarm) it will complete the circuit allowing the POTs modular connector to
work and allow the alarm dialler to isolate the POTS connector when it (the
alarm) needs the line? Thanks.
