The SDX
420N is a self-contained, pre-programmed key telephone systems. The systems have an
integral self-test diagnostics routine which continually monitors the system, any
resulting reports enabling rapid fault location and repair.
Systems when delivered are in full working order with all standard features and facilities
incorporated. On completion of installation a simple self-diagnostic test procedure
enables the system to be proved before handover.
A simple change procedure enables features and facilities to be altered following
installation (change controller or PC based communication programme) and by the user
(using a system manager terminal) during the lifetime of the system.
The main items for use with the systems are the basic FT-1 terminal, the feature and
display FT-2, FT-3, FT-4 and FT-5 terminals, the DSS/BLF Unit, and the Operator Console.
The System Manager Terminal (an FT-4 terminal with a mask placed over the keys), a VDU
with keyboard (VT100 compatible), or the Change Controller enable features and facilities
to be changed as required.
The Change Controller and the VDU also provide the maintenance engineer with diagnostic
tools. The complete range of features is only available when using a VDU which also aids
programming. Alternatively, a personal computer (PC) may be used off-line to program the
computer range of facilities.
The SDX 420N system comprises a Central Control Unit (CCU), up to seven Group Control
Units (GCU) and up to two Extension Control Units (ECU) per GCU. A system can be sub
equipped at installation and expanded to the maximum 420 ports at a later stage.
The Change Controller/VDU connection to the system is via one of two RS232C compatible
ports which can also be used to connect an optional, customer supplied printer. This can
then be set up to provide a paper printout of call or fault statistics.
A power-fail feature enables one or more standard telephones to be connected to the
system, in the event of a power failure these are connected directly to the analogue
exchange lines allowing incoming or outgoing calls to be made.
Interconnection between the SDX and the analogue PSTN, Speechband private circuits or host
CRA is via BT 239A connectors on the connector block located inside the SDX Control Unit
and Extension Control Unit. Alternatively, a separate Test Jack Frame may be used
comprising a suitable connection box with BT 237A connection strips, connected within 15
metres of the SDX system.
The apparatus is also approved for use in the Simple Call Routing Mode (SCRM).

CONFIGURATION TYPES
Either:
KEY TELEPHONE MODE
For each PSTN line on which an incoming call can be connected there shall be at
least one key telephone provided, or at least one key and lamp position allocated on a
DSS/BLF unit or FT-5 terminal.
Or:
SIMPLE CALL ROUTING MODE
The apparatus shall be configured in such a way that each incoming PSTN call
shall be presented to at least one terminating key telephone station and, if not answered,
shall be presented within the next 60 seconds to every idle terminating station able to
accept calls from that exchange line, with at least an audible indication.
