Additional Information
Enhanced Tribune
Enhanced
Tribune telephones (Telephone No's 9804 to 9812) are based on and offer the same facilities of THE basic 'Dual
Signalling' Tribune i.e.:-
-
LD, Mixed or MF (TouchTone) signalling (user switchable).
-
31 digit (including * & #) last number redial memory.
-
Earth-loop or Timed-break recall (user switchable).
-
Secrecy (microphone cut-off switch).
-
Bell with adjustable volume control and 'off' position.
Number Label Cover
All Tribune telephones have the dial label under the handset on the rear of
the casing.
The transparent label cover is removed by levering the cover
carefully upwards.
Ringers
Tribunes can have either a bell or a tone caller. Both can have the
volume adjusted by means of the lever on the ringer. On all models
tone callers have a volume control only, whilst bells have a volume control
with an off position. The ringer is on the base.
Bell volume control is achieved by varying the travel of the bell plunger, this can result
in bell tinkle due to line disturbances if the bell volume control is set to 'low'.
The Tribune Bell is designed to meet REN 1 requirements when set in the mid (notch)
position, due to additional circuitry required for tone callers it is not possible to
provide 'Enhanced Tribunes' (98XX models) with a tone caller instead of a bell as the circuit board area
is used by the handset amplifier circuit.
Wall mounting
This is a table only telephone. No wall mounting kits are available.
Memory Retention
There is no provision for memory backup batteries in Tribune telephones, last number
memory cannot be guaranteed it the telephone is removed from line for more than 5 minutes.
Dial Modes
Basic
Tribune telephones are available in 10 pps pulsing (LD), Tone signalling (MF) and dual signalling
(MF and LD) models with earth or timed break recall facilities.
Mixed signalling is the facility whereby a call may be originated in the LD 10 pps mode
and continued for the duration of the call in the MF4 mode by pressing the * button to
access certain network based facilities. This is available on AR models
only.
There is no facility for storing PBX access pause in the Last Number redial
store. PBX access codes may be keyed manually before pressing the 'LR' button on PBXs
requiring a pause.
Manufacturer
Made by TMC Ltd (Marked GNA on base) and Denis Ferranti Ltd (Marked DFM on base)

Technical Information
Line testing
Idle - Normal capacitor loop, additionally Tribunes 99XX & 98XX draw on hook current
(typically 20 micro amps) to maintain last number re-dial memory. This may appear to give
apparent 'Low Loop' line test conditions.
Seized - Normal off-hook press button telephone loop. The electronic keypad and
transmission circuitry may give high resistance tele-loop line test conditions as with
other press button telephones.
User Issues
Bell volume control is achieved by varying the travel of the bell plunger, this can result
in bell tinkle due to line disturbances if the volume control is set to 'low'. On certain
systems (typically those with electronic ringing generators) a louder ring may be obtained
if the control is set at the mid point instead of 'loud'.
Pressing the 'S' button will cut off outgoing transmission on all models without affecting
incoming speech except for Tribunes 94XX made by DFM Ltd, on these the level of incoming
speech is reduced whilst the 'S' button is held down.
Last number redial memory will be erased on LNR models if the telephone is disconnected
from line for typically more than 5 minutes, there is no provision for memory retention
batteries.
All Tribunes have good immunity against RFI from 100kHz to 10Mhz.
Telephones 9401AR and 9402AR can be converted to Time Break Recall (TBR). On
the underside of the telephone is a small plug, in a recess, which has makings
'E' and 'T'. The plug must be removed, turned 180 degrees and replaced so
that the raised lug of the plug is now nearest the 'T'.
Signalling details
MF signalling, tone stretched (with minimum duration tone bursts of approximately 100 ms).
Timed break recall, approximately 100 ms.
Earth recall, continuous whilst recall button is pressed.
RFI immunity -
Good immunity against RFI from l00kHz to 200MHz.
Speech on Enhanced Tribunes
Due to the restrictions of BABT approval, the level of amplification of incoming speech on
Tribunes 9804 AR & 9806 AR is much lower than that of the 'Conquest' handset
(Amplified handset for 700 type teles).
BT has been granted a relaxation to produce Tribunes 9810 AR & 9811 AR which offer a
higher (20dB) level of amplification, with the `normal' setting at the left of the volume
control instead of in the mid position.
