1 POTSwap General Description

The POTSwap allows landline telephones to replace their POTS (plain old telephone service) connection with a

wireless cellular connection. Both dial-in and dial-out voice is supported. The POTSwap also has data support

capabilities; contact Janus Remote Communications with details of your application.

An FXS connection (RJ11 jack) provides complete Central Ofﬁce emulation including dial tone, ringing and busy

signal generation as well as DTMF detection and generation. The POTSwap emulates all the functions of a wired

telephone connection and is fully compatible with all common landline telephone standards.

Wireless connectivity is provided by an integrated cellular module which provide support for current mobile network

technologies with service available from numerous wireless carriers.

Conﬁguration of the POTSwap can be achieved via a local serial USB connection.

2 Integrated Cellular Modem

Cellular communication for the POTSwap is providec by an integrated cellular modem module. This module offers the

ability to support multiple carriers with ﬁrmware changes in future products.

The POTSwap provides one platform that supports current cellular technology with the future in mind.

3 Operation

3.1 Set-Up:

Operating the POTSwap with voice (telephone) equipment can be achieved through the following steps:

1. Gather the required equipment:

• LTE POTSwap

• Power Supply - This can be hard-wired from a user supplied power source via the terminal block header

(See section 9 - Compatible Terminal Block Connectors) or using the optional wall transformer

(See section 11 - Accessories).

• Cellular antennas - Two LTE cellular antennas are recommended. (See section 11 - Accessories).

• GPS antenna - An active GPS antenna must be connected the the GPS antenna connector to provide E911

location support. (See section 11 - Accessories)

• The POTSwap requires an activated SIM card. A ‘micro’ (3FF size) SIM card is required.

2. Install the SIM card in the rear panel SIM slot. The gold contact side faces down; the camphered corner

edge goes in ﬁrst. The panel slot is sized such that a dime coin can be used to assist in seating and

unseating the SIM card.

See section 6 - SIM Card Installation.

3. Connect the cellular antennas to the SMA connectors labeled ‘CELL 1’ and ‘CELL 2’. This can be a local

antenna or a remote antenna connected by a coaxial cable.

4. Connect a GPS antenna to the SMA connector labeled ‘GPS’. (See Section 7 - GPS.)

5. Connect power to the unit.

Once powered, the unit should show a connection to the cellular carrier within a minute. This will be

indicated by a rapidly ﬂashing GREEN ‘STATUS’ LED, a GREEN ‘CELL’ LED, and a steady signal strength

indication on the Received Signal Strength LED stack.

Once powered, the unit should show a connection to the cellular carrier within a minute. This will be indicated by

a rapidly ﬂashing GREEN ‘STATUS’ LED, a blinking ‘CELLULAR’ LED, and a steady signal strength indication on

the Received Signal Strength LED stack.

3 Operation continued

3.2 Voice Operation

Voice operation requires a standard voice telephone device to be connected to the POTSwap.

3.2.1 Placing calls:

When the connected telephone device is taken off hook, the POTSwap will present an audio dial tone signal.

Dialing can proceed with up to 30 digits being accepted. If the Dialing Tone Timeout (30 second default) elapses

before the ﬁrst digit is dialed, the dialing session is ended by an Open Switching Interval (900 millisecond default).

If the Dialing Digit Timeout (4 second default) elapses after a dialed digit, dialing is concluded and a call to

the dialed number is placed. At any time the number sign (‘#’) can be dialed and the call is placed immediatly,

avoiding the Dialing Digit Timeout. Note that if Fixed Format Dialing is enabled, the dialed number

must consist of a ten digit phone number that includes the area code, or an eleven number when

the ﬁrst digit is a ‘1’.

Telephone devices that automatically take the phone off-hook and place a call to a ﬁxed telephone

number are compatible with the POTSwap. Dialing digits should not be sent faster than 100 ms per

digit, with a minimum DTMF tone duration of 45 ms.

The POTSwap is compatible with DTMF dialing only. Pulse dialing (rotary phones) is not supported.

3.2.2 Receiving calls:

Incoming calls will cause the POTSwap to generate a ringing signal on the phone line. Taking the connected

telephone line off-hook will answer the incoming call. Note that cellular carriers typically impose a 30 second limit

on unanswered ringing before a call is transferred to a voice mail system.

3.2.3 Call Disconnect:

A call can always be terminated by placing the connected telephone equipment on-hook. If a cellular call

is terminated on the carrier side (the result of a connected party ending the call or due to loss of signal) the

POTSwap will use an Open Switching Interval to aid in disconnecting automated type telephone equipment. It

removes the voltage from the phone line connection for a short time to signal that the call has been terminated.

The OSI interval can be adjusted using the user conﬁguration menu.

3.2.4 Unconnected Busy:

In some instances when dialing a number that is busy, the cellular carriers will not make an audio connection

to a busy tone. If this occurs, the POTSwap will generate the busy tone locally for a period deﬁned by the user

conﬁgurable Busy Dwell Timeout parameter. Following the busy tone, the POTSwap will terminate the call by

generating an Open Switching Interval (see section 4 - Conﬁguration).

4. Conﬁguration

Conﬁguration of the POTSwap is available via communications with the CONFIG USB connection. Conﬁguration

can be accomplished by connecting a terminal device (e.g. laptop or desktop computer running a terminal emulator)

to the CONFIG port using a USB cable with a USB ‘mini’ type B connector for the POTSwap. The USB connection

requires a CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Driver. Normally this will be automatically installed by the operating

system. Otherwise it can be downloaded from SIlicon Laboratories at www.silabs.com.

Figure 3 Serial USB Connection

When the POTSwap is ﬁrst powered on, it will output something similar to the following:

Two types of power connector are provided on the POTSwap. These two connectors are connected directly

together internally, and are simply provided as a user convenience.

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO BOTH CONNECTORS SIMULTANEOUSLY

The negative terminal of the power supply is connected to the enclosure.

Power supply range can be found in the Speciﬁcations section.

Terminal Block Header: This is an industry standard 5.08 mm header that accepts a variety of terminal blocks,

including screw terminal, spring clamp and crimp terminal type. See Section 9 – Compatible Terminal Block

Connectors.

Circular Jack: The circular DC jack has a 6 mm hole diameter and a 2 mm center pin. It is designed to accept

a 5.5 mm diameter plug with a 2.1 mm center hole and a 8.5 mm barrel length. The center pin is the positive

terminal.

Antenna Connectors:

CELLULAR: A standard 50 ohm SMA connector is provided for connecting a cellular antenna. The placement of

the antenna affects connectivity; a remote antenna location may be necessary in some situations.

GPS: A standard 50 ohm SMA connector is provided for connecting a GPS antenna.

The GPS connector provides a 3.3V bias voltage for active antennas.

CONFIG Connector:

A USB mini type-B connector provides a serial port connetion for conﬁguring parameters on the POTSwap and

monitoring operation for debugging purposes. The USB connection is supported by a Silicon Labratories CP210x

series UART to USB bridge. Drivers for a variety of operating systems are available from www.silabs.com.

LTE910PS v1.00 User Manual JA16-UM Page 13 Rev: 00 Date: 07/24/19

6. SIM Card Installation

The POTSwap requires the installation of an activated SIM card for operation. A ‘micro’ (3FF) size SIM card is

required.

The SIM card holder is mounted to a p.c.board behind the slot, so some care is required to insure that the SIM

card is inserted correctly. It should not take much effort to insert the SIM card if properly aligned.

Do NOT force the SIM card into the slot. Do not insert tools, paperclips, etc. into the slot.

Insert the SIM card into the SIM slot with the following orientation:

- gold contact side facing down

- narrow edge with chamfered corner in ﬁrst.

Do NOT use a SIM card adaper to install nano sized SIMs into the POTSwap. The adapter edge

can catch on the SIM socket and cause permanent damage.

LTE910PS v1.00 User Manual JA16-UM Page 14 Rev: 00 Date: 07/24/19

7. GPS

7.1 GPS Operation

POTSwap models have a GPS antenna connector installed on the back plate and offer the ability to provide enhanced

location information to emergency (911) operators. A suitable GPS antenna must be used and the antenna must be

properly located to receive the GPS signals.

The GPS operation is automatic, and is independent of the cellular radio operation. When the unit has acquired a

GPS location ﬁx, the GPS LED will be GREEN.

This indication is independent of the cellular signal strength indication. See section 5.1 – Front Panel. A GPS location

ﬁx should be available within a few minutes of operation under normal conditions.

7.2 GPS Antenna

For best results, it is recommended that an active GPS antenna be used with the POTSwap. The GPS antenna

connector provides a 3.3V bias voltage to power an active antenna, and should easily be able to supply the 5 to

25mA of current that a typical active GPS antenna requires. Any standard off-the-shelf active GPS antenna that will

operate at the 3.3V bias voltage should sufﬁce. See section 11 – Accessories.

7.3 GPS Antenna location

The ideal GPS antenna position would be an outdoors location with a clear view of the sky to the horizon in all

directions, with no obstructing structures or foliage. A higher antenna placement usually gives a better view of the

sky over surrounding obstructions. In the northern hemisphere, a southern sky view is preferable over a northern

sky view. If the antenna must be indoors, placement as near as possible to a window is preferable. Receiving a GPS

location ﬁx deep inside buildings or in dense urban environments (“street canyons”) is normally not possible.

7.4 GPS Troubleshooting

With a terminal attached to the CONFIG port, debug messages are available that can be used to monitor the GPS

operation. See section 4 – Conﬁguration, for information on attaching a terminal to the CONFIG port.

There are several types of debug messages output during normal operation. The message with the GPS information

includes “$GPSACP:” near the beginning of the output line, and is output about once per minute. The $GPSACP

message conveys 11 terms, separated by commas:

UTC UTC time (hhmmss.sss)

latitude format is ddmm.mmmm N/S

longitude format is ddmm.mmmm E/W

hdop x.x - Horizontal Diluition of Precision

altitude x.x Altitude - mean-sea-level (geoid) in meters

x 0 or 1 - Invalid Fix; 2 - 2D x; 3 - 3D x

cog ddd.mm - Course over Ground (degrees, True)

spkm x.x Speed over ground (Km/hr)

spkn x.x- Speed over ground (knots)

date ddmmyy Date of Fix.

nsat nn - Total number of satellites in use, 00..12

The ﬁnal term can be used to provide some useful information about the quality of the GPS antenna system being

used. Generally, the better the antenna system, the greater the number of satellites will appear in the ‘nsat’ term.

Though it varies over time, the typical maximum number of satellites available is 10. A minimum of 4 is required to

get a location ﬁx, and numbers of 8 or more indicate an excellent antenna system.

With no location ﬁx, the $GPSACP message will appear as follows:

[$GPSACP: ,,,,,1,,,,,]

This would be expected after the unit has powered up but before a location ﬁx is aquired. It would also be indicative

of a poor antenna system if it was still being reported after several minutes of operation.

A typical ﬁx might appear similar to the following:

[$GPSACP: 183117.000,4147.6251N,08815.5097W,1.25,191.0,3,191.69,0.12,0.06,290716,07]

In this example the ‘nsat’ term indicates that 7 satellites are being used.
