Reference Manual Chapter 2: Overview
Chapter 2: Overview
The Teltone®SLSS has been designed to consolidate telephone lines at electrical
utility substations. It enables utilities having only one telephone line or those
using multiple telephone lines for data transfers to save costs through line
sharing. The SLSS also increases line efficiency by allowing devices, such as
telephones, modems connected to fault locating relays, meters, etc., and fax
machines to shareaphonelinein a substation. It can work with a Teltone Polling
Controllerasasystem(U.S. Patent No. 5,241,587)orit canoperate asa standalone
unit to give you a flexible, cost-effective way to eliminate extra substation
telephone lines and route calls.
Figure1 illustratesa typical application,in whicha singletelephoneline isshared
by fourdevices.The Polling Controllerisadded to your existinghardware atthe
data retrieval location.
The SLSS offers many benefits, some of which include its ability to:
• Share a single substation telephone line between up to eight devices.
• Eliminate expensive telephone line installation and monthly charges for
briefly used modem lines.
• Ensure correct call routing by using a Polling Controller.
• Enhance worker safety by giving priority to telephone users.
• Hide substation modems from unauthorized access.
• Obtain high reliability and availability with a unit providing C37.90 SWC
protection to attached devices and powered from 42-150 VDC batteries
(“A” and “B” models only) or 90-150VAC (“D” model only) or 90-220VAC
(“E” model only).

Install Polling Controller (optional)
If you are using the SLSS with the Polling Controller, follow these steps. These
instructions are repeated in the Po lling Controller Reference Manual,
40-400-00013.These stepsrequireapersonatboth thePolling ControllerandSLSS
locations.
❑ Plug the incoming Central Office telephone line into the Telco Line port on
the back panel of the Polling Controller. (The incoming line comes from the
telephone RJ-11/wall jack.)
❑ Connect another standard modular telephone cord from the modem to the
Modem port on the back of the Polling Controller. (The cords are available
as an ordering option.)
❑ Connect a standard RS-232 cable from the modem to the computer (PC,
mainframe, or workstation) used to control polling.
❑ Connect the PS-24DC-01 power transformer cord to the jack labeled: Class
2 Input Power Pack, on the rear of the Polling Controller. Plug the power
transformer into a 120 VAC outlet.
❑ If you are using multiple Polling Controllers, see the Installing Multiple
Units in Carrier instructions in the Polling Controller Reference Manual
(40-400-00013).
❑ The power LED on the back panel should be flashing. If not, check that the
power is securely connected. (If the LED does not light, check the power
connection and fuse. If the LED is on bright, but does not flash, see the
Troubleshooting instructions in the appendix.)
❑ Place a call to the telephone connected to Port 1 on the SLSS. The call
should be answered by the SLSS on the first ring and the Port 1 telephone
should ring after four seconds. Answer the phone, then hang up.
❑ The system is ready to go to work. To call one of the ports on the SLSS, dial
the SLSS telephone number and add a routing code to the end.
❑ Test that calls are routed properly by plugging a device into Port 3 on the
SLSS, then call the SLSS and enter the routing code for Port 3. Check that
Port 3 rings and that the LED flashes on and off.
❑ Forexample: CallPort 3on theSLSS bydialing 1-206-555-1212∗03from aphone
plugged into the Polling Controller.
❑ Routing codes ∗01-∗08 sends calls to Ports 1-8 as follows: ∗01 routes calls to
Port 1, ∗02 to Port 2, and ∗03 to Port 3, etc.
❑ (Optional.) If you will not be using the default settings, see Programming
Tips in Chapter 4. To program the Polling Controller, refer to the Polling
Controller Reference Manual (40-400-00013).

Reference Manual Chapter 3: Installation
Setup Standalone Operation
Follow the steps below to setup the SLSS to work without a Polling Controller.
Note:
the Polling Controller must be re-programmed with transfer codes which
match those of the SLSS.
Remember that if the SLSS will ever work with a Polling Controller,
❑ Disconnect the incoming CO line from the SLSS.
❑ Connect a DTMF telephone to Port 2 of the SLSS.
❑ Pick up the phone and enter # # within 15 seconds.
❑ When you hear the three-beep confirmation tone, enter ∗00#∗02# to
activate the Standalone defaults. Listen for the three-beep confirmation.
❑ Hang up the telephone and reconnect the incoming CO line to the SLSS.
❑ The power LED on the front panel should be flashing. If it is not, check that
the power is securely connected. (If the LED does not light, check the
power connection and fuse. If the LED is on bright, but does not flash, call
Technical Support.)
❑ Call the telephone connected to Port 1. The call should be answered by the
SLSS on the first ring and the Port 1 telephone should ring after four
seconds.
❑ Answer the phone, then hang up.
❑ Now you can call a port on the SLSS by adding the Standalone transfer
codes to the end of the SLSS phone number. (Standalone transfer codes
11-88 access Ports 1-8 as follows: 11 accesses Port 1, 22 accesses Port 2, and
33 accesses Port 3, etc.) See Chapter 4: Changing Transfer Codes to program
new codes.
❑ For example, to call Port 2, dial the SLSS number. Enter 22 after the first ring
(within 4 seconds).
-or-
❑ If you will not be using the Standalone Defaults, review the Programming
Tips in Chapter 4 and follow the Standalone SLSS Programming, also in
Chapter 4.
❑ (Optional) To call through a modem, remember to give the receiving
modem time to answer by adding pause time (,,,,) between the SLSS
telephone number and the transfer code.
If the modem does not answer properly, add or remove commas. If the call
defaults to Port 1, the pause is too long and you should remove one or
more commas. When adding or removing commas, do so one at a time.
40-400-00031, Rev. A Page 9
Substation Line Sharing Switch
The number of commas you will add depends on the time required for the
network to process your call and for the SLSS to answer the call.
❑ For example, to send a call to Port 3, dial: 1-206-555-1212,,,,33
Note:
The guesswork involved in determining the correct number of pauses
is why many users decide to use the Teltone Polling Controller.
❑ (Optional.) Continue to Chapter 4: Programming to review the Programming
Tips before following the Setup for Local, Remote or Standalone
Programming instructions.

Chapter 4: Programming
Programming Tips
You can adjust or program many of features in the SLSS. All of the options and
commands are listed in Table 2, later in this chapter. The SLSS is programmed
using a touchtone telephone, either locally, without disconnecting the CO Line,
or remotely from the Polling Controller.
Passwords
Always enter # after entering a password. If an invalid password is entered, you
will not hear three beeps and should hang up and wait for 30 seconds before
trying again. If three consecutive invalid attempts are made, the SLSS will lock out all
further access for 1 hour. (M-395-B, D, E models only: If secure relay access is
enabled, the SLSS will allow 5 consecutive invalid attempts.)
Note:
this password.
Remote Programming
Remote Programming must be enabled through Local Programming before you
can access the SLSS remotely. When you have finished programming remotely,
exit by hanging up the telephone. You cannot disable the Remote Programming
feature while in Remote Programming.
ConfirmationTone
When a command has been entered successfully, you will hear a three-beep
confirmation tone after entering the last #.
ErrorTone
When a command has been entered incorrectly, you will hear a single-beep error
tone after entering the last #.
Enable/Disable
With functions that are either enabled or disabled, such as fax routing, an entry
of 0 in the data field disables a feature; 1 enables it.
The password used to access the Auxiliary Relay must be different from
Cancel Command
To canceltheentire command, enter ∗in a command field. To cancel a command,
back to, but excluding the #, enter ∗ in a data field. To abort the entire command,
enter ∗∗ in a data field. If no data is entered in a field, that field is either cleared
or set to zero.

Substation Line Sharing Switch
Transfer Codes
When assigning transfercodesfor remote programming or for ports (commands
∗07#n#x# and ∗12#y#n#x#), follow these rules:
• Transfer codes must have the same number of digits, be no more than four digits
long, be unique (i.e., all codes must be different), and can use any of the 16 DTMF
digits.
• If you do not use the defaults, all codes must be programmed in both the
SLSS and Polling Controller.
Entering Programming Commands
You canenter the commands in any order. If you will not use aparticular feature,
skip to the next and continue programming.
Threebeeps tell youthat the SLSSreceivedthe command.One long tonetellsyou
that the command was incorrect and must be entered again. If you make a
mistake, simply re-enter the command correctly.
To enter a command, replace “n,” “x,” and “y” with the desired values.
❑ For example, to change the number of rings before disconnect from 12 to 10,
enter
∗01#10#.
❑ For example, to change the password to 1234, enter ∗03#1234#1234#.
❑ For example, to change the Port 2 transfer code to 8802, enter *12#2#4#8802#
Setup for Remote Programming with a Polling Controller
Note:
Emergency Priority. If one of these priority modes is enabled, Port 1 will be
able to interrupt programming.
The SLSS will exit programming mode and disconnect if 60 seconds elapse
without entry of any digits.
The factory default for Remote Programming is enabled. If you have disabled
Remote Programming, it must be enabled before you can program.
You can access the SLSS for programming from the Polling Controller using a
special transfer code. You must enter a password after entering the Remote
Programming Transfer Code. The transfer code instructs the SLSS to answer
without ringing any of the device ports. Proceed as follows:
Programming may be interrupted if you have enabled Total or
❑ Disconnect the Polling Controller from the host modem.
❑ Plug a DTMF telephone into the Modem port on the Polling Controller.
Page 12
Reference Manual Chapter 4: Programming
❑ Dial the number of the SLSS, adding the #7 routing code to the end of the
number. (This is the Polling Controller default for the Remote
Programming Transfer code.)
❑ When the Polling Controller connects to the switch (you will hear three
beeps and the LED flashes), enter the password within 30
seconds: 8358663# (The default is “Teltone”.)
If an invalid password is entered, there will be no acknowledgment of any
kind. Hang up and wait for 30 seconds before trying again.
❑ When you hear the three-beep confirmation tone, begin programming or
follow the example below. (If you decide to program, please review the
example first.)
Example: Remote Programming with Polling Controller
If you follow the steps in this example, remember to reprogram the settings to
match your application.
❑ Enter ∗50#1# to enable Emergency Priority. When you hear 3 beeps, enter
another command or exit programming mode. If you hear error tone, enter the
command again.
❑ Enter ∗51#1#911#911# to enter the number 911 as the first emergency priority
number. Listen for three beeps.
❑ Enter ∗51#2#18004263926#18004263926# to enter the number 1(800)
426-3926 as the second emergency priority number. Listen for three beeps.
❑ Enter ∗03#8378#8378# to change the password to “test”(8378).Listenfor three
beeps.
❑ Enter ∗06#2# to enable Port 2 to handle fax routing. Listen for three beeps.
❑ Enter ∗09# to exit programming mode. Hang up.
❑ Redial the unit, adding #7 to the end of the number.
❑ Listen for three beeps and watch the LED change, then enter 8378# (test#)
within 30 seconds to check the new password. Listen for three beeps.
❑ Enter *74#1# to enable the Auxiliary Relay. Listen for three beeps.
❑ If you have followed this example and wish to return to the factory defaults, enter
∗00#∗01# Listen for three beeps. Enter *09# and hang up the phone.
-or-
❑ If you wish to use the changes made in this example, enter ∗09# to exit
programming mode.
