    Although the LSS can also be used as a standalone unit, providing a flexible, cost-effective way to consolidate lines and route calls, Teltone strongly recommends the use of a Polling Controller. When working together, the two units communicate across the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to set up and disconnect calls as well as to determine priorities among devices and types of calls (e.g., outgoing...
  • Page 12: Basic Operation

    Polling Controller Reference Manual Basic Operation The LSS answers incoming calls, determines the port to which the call should be sent, and routes the call. If a transfer code is received from a Polling Controller, the LSS routes the call to the requested device, such as a polled modem.

    End Dialing String With this feature you can insert a # after a telephone number so that your Public Branch Exchange (PBX) will not treat the transfer code as another command. The # can be inserted automatically or you can insert it manually. If you choose to have the # automatically inserted, the Polling Controller sends the # digit before sending the transfer code.

    Polling Controller Reference Manual Chapter 5: Polling Controller Operation Typical Call Sequence When the Polling Controller and LSS are working together as a system, a typical polling call from a host computer would progress as described below: 1. The host modem dials the polling call to access a modem on Port 3 of the remote LSS, by dialing: 1-206-555-1212 03 2.

Enable Automatic Transfer Code Select transfer code, or disable. When enabled, the Polling Controller will automatically append the transfer code after the dialed number. This feature will not operate when the Line Split Method is Six Digits.
  • Page 27 Chapter 5: Polling Controller Operation If the unit is programmed for programmable routing codes (*04#1#), it looks for at least a 1.5 second pause in the dial string after at least 6 digits are dialed. If this delay is seen it assumes that the next 3 digits are the routing code. If no additional digits are seen within 2.5 seconds after the last digit dialed, the unit outputs the remainder of the dialed number and then cuts through the call.
