Another update:
I have doped out the power connections to one of my two desk millenniums.
Each has different cables on it. The first is a two pair cable with traditional colours (red, green, black, and yellow), and has a security cable run along with the operational pairs. It culminates with spade lugs, and a ring lug for the security cable.
Red and green in this cable are of course the tip and ring. Black and yellow are the DC supply input. I use a Motorola POE supply (24 VDC, .5 amp) minus of course its POE connector. This is connected to the Black and Yellow pair. Getting polarity wrong isn't important - it will work only one way. When properly connected, a click should be heard, and the phone will boot up to the default "Out of Service" message.
The other type of cable which can be found on these it a standard 3 pair modular cable culminating in a modular connector.
Its first pair, Blue/Blue White are tip and ring. The second pair should be the power pair. I need to get a modular jack from the museum to confirm this, which I will do later today.
Still looking for the programming interlock card (for lack of a better name) for these phones.
I would love also to find programming instructions for these phones. I do not have a connection to the Millennium Manager as I won't be demonstrating the phone on an outside line in the museum,so I realize I can't get it to work normally.
