BST Doorphone 2

[witchdoctor99]

I have a question for the Nortel gods on this site. Is it possible to have a BST doorphone ring all the extensions on a CICS ver 7.0 instead of just the first one?

Keep in mind I have minimum experience with Nortel systems. I've spent the last 36 years doing alarm, CCTV, access control, bell sat tv, home/small business phones (no ksu), cable tv, and and OTA antennas.

TIA

John

In Door Phone programming you can point it to only 1 DN, but that can be a hunt group DN too.
In order to have Hunt Groups on a CICS they must be at 3 digit DN's and not 2, (extension # length)

You can also have it do a door chime over the paging.
If you hear the chime then intercom the door phone to speak with the person.

Guess I Have a bit more learning to do about Hunt Groups unless I can use the speakers built into the sets as I'm not going to install paging speakers around my house.

You could pick an available but not used extension on the system, assign that as the called ext, then assign answer dn of that extension to all the sets you want to ring.

Well it took me a few hours of reading through three manuals and playing around with the programming on my ksu, but I finally got it figured out.

Thanks for the ideas. I almost wish I got into phone work instead of alarm work.

Well, at least you have longer drill bits.

Which route did you go with?

I went with the answer dn. And yes I do have longer drill bits. I have two flex bits that are 8 ft long
