OK guys, H have a 202A manual deskset and I'm hooking it up to a 425K network.... just double check with you.... the connections as follows:

     Red to "R"
     Green to "GN"
     Black to "B"
     and Yellow to "L2"

write me back if something is wrong.... I also have to add a jumper between "F" and "L1"
Line connections: "L1 and L2"

Haven't checked my diagram yet, but I always had to use a 5-conductor desk cord for wiring a 425 to a 202.

I got it working, the jumper went from L1 to GN... I have a gold 202 Imperial that has the same cord... and it seems to work fine... what was the connections for a 202 to a 685 subset?

I just added a #6U dial to a 202 deskset... Knowing that there are 6 connections, the pulse and 2 sets of ON (on Normal) contacts... what do I have to do to use this dial..... or is it just for the newer phones.... would I have to change the subset cord from a 4C to a 8C cord? the subset has a 425K network in it....

Just short the receiver (6U, 7D, 9C dials) rather than opening it (6A, 5H, 4H).
