Option 61c, have dial tone at set but want ring. When calling DN test set makes click but no ring, call can be answered. Moved to another TN on another card and another loop still no ring. Can use original TN wired to another jack and works fine. Can anyone help?
 
The shelf must have a Ring Generator card for analog phones to ring. The Ring Generator is not required unless the shelf has analog phones that must ring. You might not have that card in the shelves you are testing on?

Found problem it is the feeder cable going to external building. I have 12 digi sets on it they work fine but can't get enough voltage to make 500 set ring on any pair of the feeder. I put a local CO pots line on the feeder and it works fine. Have my 500 set cfw to pots at the moment. Is there a way to boost up the voltage or change what the cable resistance is in? Have another problem with the cfw will post new thread. Thanks for all the help.
 
New feeder cable, haven't put lightning protection on yet but have had that problem before. Thanks Buddy
