Operation

A. Normal Operation (all DIP switches OFF)
An off-hook device is given a dial tone. Any Touch-Tone will break the dial tone and two and a half seconds after a phone number is dialed, the DLE-300 will ring the opposite port up to 10 times. Caller ID information is sent after the first ring. When the other device answers, the call is connected. The unit provides a CPC break and 10 seconds of reordering tones when either device hangs up.
B. Ring Down Mode (DIP switch 6 ON)
In this mode, the DLE-300 does not require Touch Tones to be dialed to ring the other telephone device. An off-hook condition on either port will trigger 2 seconds of dial tone and the opposite port will begin ringing. No caller ID data is sent. Note: To eliminate the dial tone, set DIP switch 7 to ON.
C. Special Call Progress Tones (DIP switch 4 ON)
In this mode, the DLE-300 may be activated to provide busy, reorder, S.I.T., dial tone, and special continuous test tone. The tones are keyed off of the last digit dialed (see the chart to the right).

Last Digit Dialed Special Call Progress Tones
1 Busy
2 Reorder
3 S.I.T (Special Interrupt Tone)
4 1004 Hz@-20dBm Test Tone
5 Silence
6 Dial tone
7 Standard ringback
8 Standard ringback
9 Standard ringback
0 Standard ringback

Example: 5 5 5 – 1 2 3 4
D. Caller ID
Multi-message caller ID data is sent after the first ring. The information sent is keyed off of the second to the last digit dialed (see the chart to the right).

E. 911 Mode (DIP switch 5 ON, DIP switch 6 OFF)
The DLE-300 features a 911 mode for classroom training, etc. In this mode, the DLE-300 will only allow calls to ring that have dialed 911. Any other number dialed will receive a busy signal. While in 911 mode, “911 Emergency” will be sent as the caller ID data whenever 911 is dialed.
F. Audio Jack (DIP switch 8 ON)
A 3.5mm (1/8″) audio jack is provided for an audio connection to the simulated lines. This is ideal for recording voice prompts on voice mail systems, recording, or amplifying the voice path. This connection is bi-directional so the audio may be uploaded or downloaded. Note: Keep DIP switch 8 OFF when the AUDIO jack is not required for the best standard operation.

RETURNING PRODUCT FOR REPAIR
The following procedure is for equipment that needs repair:

  1. The customer must contact Viking’s Technical Support Department at 715-3868666 to obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number. The customer MUST have a complete description of the problem, with all pertinent information regarding the defect, such as options set, conditions, symptoms, methods to duplicate the problem, frequency of failure, etc.

  2. Packing: Return equipment in the original box or in proper packing so that damage will not occur while in transit. The original product boxes are not designed for shipping – an overpack box is required to prevent damage in transit. Static sensitive equipment such as a circuit board should be in an anti-static bag, sandwiched between foam, and individually boxed. All equipment should be wrapped to avoid packing material lodging in or sticking to the equipment. Include ALL parts of the equipment. C.O.D. or freight collect shipments cannot be accepted. Ship cartons prepaid to:
    VIKING ELECTRONICS 1531 INDUSTRIAL STREET HUDSON, WI 54016

  3. Return shipping address: Be sure to include your return shipping address inside the box. We cannot ship to a PO Box.

  4. RA number on the carton: In large printing, write the RA number on the outside of each carton being returned.

RETURNING PRODUCT FOR EXCHANGE
The following procedure is for equipment that has failed out-of-box (within 10 days of purchase):

  1. Customers must contact Viking’s Technical Support at 715-386-8666 to determine possible causes for the problem. The customer MUST be able to step through recommended tests for diagnosis.
  2. If the Technical Support Product Specialist determines that the equipment is defective based on the customer’s input and troubleshooting, a Return Authorization (RA) number will be issued. This number is valid for fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of issue.
  3. After obtaining the RA number, return the approved equipment to your distributor. Please reference the RA number on the paperwork being shipped back with the unit(s), and also the outside of the shipping box. The original product boxes are not designed for shipping – an overpack box is required to prevent damage in transit. Once your distributor receives the package, they will replace the product over the counter at no charge. The distributor will then return the product to Viking using the same RA number.
  4. The distributor will NOT exchange this product without first obtaining the RA number from you. If you haven’t followed the steps listed in 1, 2, and 3, be aware that you will have to pay a restocking charge.
