Privacy Release
Description
Privacy is insured on all communications in the system. If desired, the customer may elect to 
disable the Automatic Privacy feature, thus allowing up to seven other stations to join in on 
an existing CO Line conversations.
Per CO Line Option
Description
The Per CO Line feature allows programming of each CO line individually for privacy. This 
feature is useful for maintaining security on such lines as data lines, private lines, or special 
circuits requiring privacy. If privacy is disabled on a CO line then, while in use, another station 
may enter the conversation simply by pressing the CO line button. A programmable warning 
tone is presented to all parties prior to actual cut-thru. The station attempting to enter the 
conversation must also have privacy disabled.
Disabling of the privacy feature may be limited by federal, state or local law, so check 
the relevant laws in your area before disabling privacy.

A station must also have Privacy disabled before the system allows that station to enter 
an existing conversation.

A programmed warning tone is presented to both parties prior to actual cut-through 
(Flash 06, Button 1).

Up to seven other stations may join an existing conversation.

The station joining the call receives a solid red LED indication.

Chapter 2 - Features and Operation
DEFAULT … Privacy is enabled for all CO Lines.
Per Station Option
Description
The system provides privacy on all communications in the system which prevents other 
stations from accidentally entering an existing conversation. However, the system provides 
the ability for a station to join an existing outside CO line conversation (on a per station 
basis). Each station can be granted the privilege to join an existing CO line conversation by 
simply pressing the CO line button of a CO line in use.
Privacy on an SLT can be useful in situations where a modem is using the SLT port for data 
transmission.Disabling this feature lets data transfer proceed without being interrupted with 
a Camp On tone. Both the station and the CO Line must have Privacy disabled before the 
system allows cut-through.

If Privacy is disabled and a station joins an existing call, a programmable warming tone is 
presented to both parties prior to actual cut-through.

If Privacy is disabled, up to seven other stations may join in on an existing conversation.
Privacy is enabled for all stations in default.
Use Flash 50 programming when you want to modify a range of stations’ attributes using 
fixed station numbers.
Use Flash 51 programming to modify a single station’s attributes using a flexible station 
number.

Remote Administration
Description
The Remote Administration feature allows authorized personnel to access the administration 
programming via a terminal device (portable telephone device or personal computer with 
communications software package).
The feature permits the review and entry of the customer database in the same manner as via 
the digital telephone. The terminal device can be connected directly to the RS-232C 
connector on the Main Processing Board (MPB) on the Triad-S, or can be accessed by a 
telephone modem linking the RS-232C connector (via a CO line) to a remote location. When 
entering the system remotely via a terminal device, access to the 19.2K baud modem is 
available.
Program Mode Entry
Refer to “Program Mode Entry (Data Terminal or PC)” on page C-5.
Modem Answer Timer
Description
The Modem Answer Timer determines how long the On Board modem provides a carrier

Database Upload/Download
Description
Database Upload/Download provides a maintenance facility which is added to the Remote 
Administration routine. This routine permits downloading of the database to a PC, when a 
software change is made or when the system must be initialized and reprogrammed.
The routine facilitates the programming of a database on an in-house system which can be 
downloaded to a PC, and then uploaded to a system in the field. After the system 
maintenance is completed, the file saved in the PC can then be uploaded to the system.
Refer to “Database Upload/Download Routine” on page C-6 for detailed instructions.
Remote System Monitor And Maintenance
Maintenance
Description
The Remote Maintenance feature allows the Interconnects’ technical staff to review the 
system configuration data and individual card slot configuration data. This can be done 
on-site using a data terminal or remotely using a modem to access a remote data terminal. 
When entering the system remotely via a terminal device, access to the 19.2K baud modem is 
available.
Monitor
Description
The Remote Monitor feature provides remote access to the installed system for diagnostic 
purposes. These capabilities benefit Service personnel enabling them to support the end 
user remotely. Different levels of access, via password, allows authorized personnel to trace, 
monitor, and up-load critical information directly from the Triad-S. This provides a more 
accurate means of acquiring system information that leads to a quick resolution of problems 
that may occur. This is all done without interfering with ongoing call processing or normal 
system operation, and in many cases may be performed without a site visit.
Capabilities reserved for this high-level troubleshooting also include:

							2-204 Ring Down/Hot Line/Off-Hook Preference
Chapter 2 - Features and Operation
Ring Down/Hot Line/Off-Hook Preference
Description
The Off-Hook Preference feature lets a key station user automatically have a flex button 
selected when going off-hook or when pressing the ON/OFF button. An SLT user may have a 
particular CO line or a CO line group selected automatically when going off-hook. This may 
be established in programming so that key station users can select and/or change their 
off-hook preference through the use of a dial code [691]+BB (01-24). Dialing [691]+00 
disables Off-Hook Preference. This user programmable preference may be allowed or denied 
in programming.
Auto Feature Access -- In addition to Auto Line Access, digital telephones have the ability to 
have their off-hook preference select a DSS or feature button upon going off-hook or 
pressing the ON/OFF button.
Auto Line Access -- Each station, key or SLT, may have their phone programmed to access a 
particular CO Line (such as a private line or a line from a group of CO lines) upon going 
off-hook. This is useful in Centrex or PBX applications when station users have dedicated 
lines. Outside line dial tone is received just by going off-hook, without the need to dial an 
access code.
Hot Line/Ring Down -- Each station, key or SLT, may be programmed to immediately call or 
ring down a particular station or outside number upon going off hook. This is done by 
programming the station’s Off-Hook Preference to activate a DSS or Speed Dial feature key. 
This feature can be overridden if the station user selects a CO line first when going off-hook.
Intercom Access -- When Off-hook Preference is enabled, at a key station, that station may 
still obtain intercom dial tone for accessing internal stations or other system features. This is 
done either by pressing a DSS button or dialing their own intercom station number prior to 
going off-hook.
User Programmable Preference -- Based on a station programmable option, digital 
telephones may be given the ability to enable, disable, or change their Off-hook Preference 
by dialing a code. This option can be denied in station programming on a per key station 
basis.
Use Flash 50 programming when you want to modify a range of stations’ attributes using 
fixed station numbers.
Use Flash 51 programming to modify a single station’s attributes using a flexible station 
number.
