Setup Standalone Operation
Follow the steps below to setup the SLSS to work without a Polling Controller.
Note:
Remember that if the SLSS will ever work with a Polling Controller,
the Polling Controller must be re-programmed with transfer codes which
match those of the SLSS.
❑
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).

❑
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.
