PTC200 General Warning

The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product is compatible with all of Telecom's network services.

PTC200 2.11.1 (6) & (7) Compliance Testing (Functional tests)

This equipment is not capable, under all operating conditions, of correct operation at the higher speeds for which it is designed. Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances. This condition typically applies to 56 kbit/s modems.

PTC200 4.5.1 (4) Off-hook Line Impedance

This equipment does not fully meet Telecom’s impedance requirements. Performance limitations may occur when used in conjunction with some parts of the network. Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances.

PTC200 5.6.1 (3) General Requirements (automatic dialing devices)

This equipment shall not be set up to make automatic calls to Telecom’s 111 Emergency Service.

PTC200 7.5.2 (3) (4) Ringer Sensitivity

This device may be subject to ringing or bell tinkle when certain other devices are connected to the same line. If this occurs, the problem should not be referred to the Telecom Faults Service.

Associated Software Limits of Compliance

Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s Telepermit requirements are dependent on the application software or PC equipment associated with this device. The application software shall be set to operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom’s specifications:

The S0 register must contain a value of 0 for no auto-answer or a value of 2 for auto-answer.

The S6 register must contain a value of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7. The factory default of 2 is recommended. The S7 register must contain a value less than 90. The factory default of 72 is recommended.

The S10 register must contain a value less than 150. The factory default of 14 is recommended. The S11 register must contain a value greater than 60. The factory default of 95 is recommended.

There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same number within any 30-minute period for any single manual call initiation.

The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 30 seconds between the end of one call attempt and the beginning of the next attempt to the same number.

Automatic calls to different numbers shall be not less than 2 seconds apart.

Failure to set these parameters correctly could negate the User Rights under the Telecom Terms of Service.
